I think we are paying a heavy price and this Iran war could lead to a global financial meltdown followed by a complete economic reset. It also could deplete our resources to the point we can't defend ourselves.

I didn't misunderstand you. We are having a discussion about a most serious thing. It's good that we can discuss this. More of us have to do that, with good will and open minds. I really appreciate your thoughtful and insightful feedback.
