Analysts: the total absence of a terror 'event' in the United States on anything approaching the scale of those on 11/09/2001 is positive, but whether US #counterterrorism strategy as a whole is actually working remains to be seen

Analysis: because even quite basic information about non-state armed groups tends to be highly elastic, it is not clear whether the sudden collapse of #ISIS can be correlated with any change in US military spending #economics

To watch: the enormous opportunity cost of US$5.9tn in a country where 20% of households live either in poverty or on the brink of poverty could engender serious debate about exactly what economic progress is for #economics #USA https://t.co/nUAt3lcUMu
