Things They Carried Response #1

I think that war should be a last resort. I'm not for it and I'm not against it. I always know what is happening in war and how we got there, I just never have an opinion. I don't think that the U.S should be involved in war unless it is completely necessary. It is a huge cost both socially and financially. We don't need that right now or ever. We are always paying off our past wars, so why enter the ones we don't really need to. I know that the Vietnam War was not intended for us to enter, but we did anyways. Also, we didn't really do anything to help out.

    Sam,

    You mention the cost of war. Here are some links to sites that show the financial cost of war:

    We will be learning more about the Vietnam War on Monday.
