US sends Billions to aid other countries
Is it truly only the average person of the US that sees how incredibly STUPID this is? Those of us bottom class citizens (since there really isn’t much of a “middle class” anymore) are increasingly irritated at the billions and trillions of dollars sent overseas. I have a message for our government:
THOSE PEOPLE HATE US! The don’t want us in their piss ant countries. They don’t want our people there, military or not. They’d rather kill most of us than have any kind of “Americanism” besmirch their ‘pure’ societies, and yet we send billions of our hard earned cash to aid them whenever they get a sniffle.
Now before you get all riled up and start bashing me, let me say that I’m not talking about ALL other countries. i’m talking about the terrorists. I’m talking about the bombers. I’m talking about the religious fanatics who think they have to convert the world…or kill them, in their eyes, either would do fine. I’m talking about the crazy, maniacal, debolical, PSYCHO people that raise their children to believe that killing yourself gets you into heaven (or whatever they call it) as long as you take a few Americans with you. THESE are the countries I am talking about.
And we’re sending them money. And food. And our soldiers to train their sons. Funny, but the last time I looked there was a homeless person on just about every street corner in urban America. Food banks can’t keep up with the demand. AND our own military is having a hard time finding soldiers.
Due to the crazy inflated prices of everything from gas to groceries, two-wage earner families are now not able to put food on the table for thier children, instead being forced to swallow their pride and go to local food banks. Could we maybe drop a few million pounds of emergency food on the cities of our OWN country??!! At least if we handed out food to our own hungry, the men passing out the meager packages wouldn’t have to be handing it out in flak vests and aiming AK-47′s at the crowd, waiting for the first of their squad to be picked off by a rebel sniper.
Here’s another crazy, far out thought. How about we give those billions and trillions of dollars back to the people that EARNED IT. Like me. And everyone else I know who’s worked every damn day of their adult life just to give 25 percent of their paycheck to a government that sits on capital hill in their fancy suits, sending their kids to private schools, and doling out our money to other nations like they were playing a child’s game of monopoly (you know, my brother and I used to love being “the bank”…..cuz we could snag an extra couple bills here and there).
“So Congressman John Doe…. would you like to be the car this year or the hat? I mean, you really ought to give someone else the opportunity to be the banker.”
“Mmmm, no. I like being the bank. And….it’s my game.”
Duh.
And where, you might ask, are all the billions of dollars being spent? Funny you should ask. THEY DON’T KNOW! Billions of dollars in contracts sent overseas, and yet there is nothing to show for it. No real records kept of what the money was used for. In fact, in one recent article, several millions of dollars were signed for (signed for, literally, by one man) as “salary for the Army”. Um, sure, yeah, let me just walk down the streets of Iraq with this billion dollar suitcase and give money to the soldiers. I’m sure he got about…..five feet.
So, let me just summarize this for those of you who got caught up in the “unjustness” of it all, those of you who are, at this very moment, writing scathing comments to tell me about the poor innocent victims, tragic pawns in the worlds politics, that are desperate and grateful for our help, and have no other way to lift themselves out of the harshness that is their reality. Here goes:
WHO CARES. When I don’t have to live paycheck to paycheck wondering how I’m going to feed my own children because every company is downsizing it’s employees and yet passing on higher prices to it’s consumers, and don’t have to balance my checkbook to the penny every time I need to fill up my car to go to that same barely-helping-me-survive job, then maybe I’ll give a rat’s ass about some family overseas who is hiding three terrorists in their basement, two on the roof aiming guns at our soldiers, and yet crying about how we’re not sending them enough food. As my brother used to say, throw yourselves on the floor and deal with it. Boo flippin hoo.
Government, keep our money where it belongs. Right here in the good ol’ U. S. of A. and learn to subscribe to the ‘Parking Lot Theory’. (If you have to ask, you’ve never talked to a soldier 
We’d all be alot better off.
