the new world order

America runs the world, and it will for the foreseeable future. Here's how we should do it:

• Unilaterally end all our trade barriers. This way we can co-opt countries who are not contributing enough to the global economy by pulling them into the free market.
• Kill whoever kills, or credibly threatens to kill, Americans. This includes Mexican drug soldiers, Pakistani terrorists, and other enemies. We should attack them all-out. No more half-assed poking at Pakistan. We should also just occupy Pakistan, and Iran, too, because we will spend more money fighting them indirectly in Afghanistan and Iraq than we would taking the fight to them. Speaking of half measures, once we destroy the status quo in a country, we should...
• Run foreign countries directly. Giving Iraqis money to run their own country doesn't work; they just steal it. USAID doesn't help much either. Although it does do worthwhile infrastructure projects like wells and pipes, it spends too much trying to preserve a rural lifestyle that really should be eradicated. To stimulate Iraq and Afghanistan's economies, we should make them tax havens. This would bring in the foreign investment they desperately need. 60% of Iraqis are employed by the government, and they are just doing make-work. Bringing in foreign companies would get infrastructure built over there in a hurry, and pay Iraqis more, and wouldn't cost us near what giving them government jobs does. An Iraqi or Afghani military makes no sense; we already have the only real military in the world. We just need to plop a couple of bases down over there and keep defending those countries ourselves. Afghanis and Iraqis can be policemen, though. There needn't be a rule barring Afghanis and Iraqis from the government. They can join the government if they get elected or hired without racial preference.
