No, you are reading it correctly. I feel like we have reached a point, financially, where we can't be out helping the rest of the world. I see a long term important in maintaining stability in other regions, as their economy and political situations can effect us. However, as we spread ourselves thin it appears that the help we are offering is less and less helpful. It also seems to be damaging our own economy. If it were feasible to temporarily focus on just our own selves we need to do that until we can stabilize.
