Talking about solutions. Foreign policy

Concluding our three-part discussion of solutions. Tonight : Foreign Policy reforms:

A resurgent Peace Corps so that practical things can again be done by people who don’t carry guns.

Divest ourselves of “ownership” of the Middle East in part by developing energy policies.

Make a sustained and serious effort at encouraging reconciliation between Israel and Palestine. If, after 2 or 3 years of sustained effort, progress cannot be made, divest ourself of support of BOTH sides.

Don’t view China’s rise as zero-sum. It is not something we can “manage.”
