That's a retarded statement if there ever was one. Do you really think Al Quaida just decided to leave us alone after 9/11? Look at all the top level guys we've killed or captured. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that has severely hampered their ability to plan and carry out attacks on us.
Do you dismiss prevention in all other areas of life? Does staying in shape really matter? I mean if someone lives a long, healthy life guys like you could dismiss the healthy steps taken and just say the guy had good genetics.
When given the choice between big business and big government, choose big business. Big business never threw millions of people into gas chambers, but big government did.
