We are a global economy dependent on safe sea lines of communication. Very few other nations have the need to project power anywhere on earth to protect their national interests. Witness China - as their economy has grown into a major global force so has their Navy. Coincidence? I think not.

For the U.S. "National Interests" have always meant what we could steal or monopolize in resources or goods from other nations.  Clearly, such actions have led us into one unwinnable war after another -- and healthwise, education-wise, economically and socially we're a basketcase.
