Imbalances of Power

In a recent post to the editorial page of the New York Times renown political scientist, Thomas L. Friedman writes about one of the largest and most unknown problems the United States faces with the election of the new administration.

Friedman, author of several books on globalization, economics and US foreign policy makes very salient points and may be onto something. His thesis: the United States is going into the next four years with one arm tied behind our backs. Our biggest foreign policy failure isn't Iraq, but our failure to adapt legitimate self-relying energy policies.

I recommend that you read the article available online at the New York Times online newspaper.
