8. What you should take away from this presentation!
•The United States cannot fix Afghanistan.
•We cannot undo nearly 40 years of continuous
bloodshed, destruction, and occupation or
manipulation by outside powers.
•Afghanistan is a country, not a nation. It has four
distinct national groups in it -- three tied by
ethnicity and/or religion to one of the country's
neighbors and divided from the fourth by the Hindu
Kush; the fourth being a collection of loosely
confederated tribes.
•The best we can do is withdraw our forces with
the publicly stated understanding that how the
Afghans govern themselves is their business.
•However, if the Afghans harbor anyone – al Qaeda
or anyone else who threatens the United States and
its allies, we must state clearly we will annihilate
those who threaten us without concern for the
welfare of those Afghans who harbor them.
“Damage control,” not “total
victory,” is the most realistic
goal for U.S. national military
strategy in Afghanistan.
9. Compute the ratio of the percentage of women to the
percentage of men for two attainment levels: high
school & bachelor’s degree.
Compare this ratio across: age, race, Hispanic origin,
nativity, place of birth, and year of entry.
Assess whether there are variations in the gender gap
based on these demographic characteristics.

Outlook for the Federal Budget
■ If current laws remained in place, spending on the major federal
health care programs would grow from more than 5 percent of GDP
today to almost 10 percent in 2037 and would continue to increase
thereafter.
■ The aging of the population and the rising cost of health care would
cause spending on the major health care programs and Social
Security to grow from more than 10 percent of GDP today to almost
16 percent of GDP 25 years from now.
■ By comparison, spending on all of the federal government’s
programs and activities, excluding net outlays for interest, has
averaged 18.5 percent of GDP over the past 40 years.
