Re: The American Century: Neoconservatism
The older you get more you will realize that the "people" you speak of are hopelessly stupid. The "people" don't run nations, nor should they - God forbid. And nation's don't move forward based on what the "people" want. A nation reaches real wealth and power through war and exploitation. And when it does, and when the banquet tables of the untouchable elite overflow with an abundance of food and wine, then and only then, will the people be allowed to enjoy a so-called "high" standard of living.
You want Armenia to enjoy the living standards of the West (USA) yet you don't want Armenia to travel the long hard path that Western society traveled before it got to where it is today. Study closely western history and see for yourself what kind of real say the "people" had in politics.
If you want Armenia to prosper in the future, then you must allow Armenia to be run by career diplomats, experianced generals and greedy businessmen - not the "people".
