Why, not How.

I believe one aspect in reacquiring American success will be a fundamental shift from a "How" society to a "Why" society. Instead of asking "How to" questions, We need to ask "Why do" How do we make social security work needs to turn into why do we still need social security, how do we maintain this defense spending needs to turn into why do we need this level of spending? We must face the fact that we are moving from a hegemonic world into a multi-polar world, the faster both parties accept this the quicker America can restructure it's foreign policy to ensure continued strength.
