“Why do we, as a country, continue to give foreign aid when we are so in debt?”
Because our leadership, at all levels, are inept, incorrigable and suffering from cranial/rectal inversions.

I’d cut everything and give 30 days notice to all welfare recipients to find a job.

Why do we, as a country, continue to give foreign aid when we are so in debt? Simple, because of who we are. We are a nation of people who drop everything to climb mountains looking for a lost boy scout, a people who raise the type of heroes that charge into certain death because they know they can trade their life for a perfect stranger’s. We are a nation of people who will charge a hi-jacked cockpit and force the plane into the ground rather than allow it to be used as a weapon. We stay glued to the TV hoping and praying for people we do not know or will never meet to emerge from a collapsed mine. We are a nation who weeps for an abandoned baby we do not know and for a fallen soldier, police officer or fire fighter. In short, we are a nation of good people who values life above anything and are pained to see anyone suffer.

I will refer to a few common psychobabble phrases to explain this.
Our government is “hooked on approval” of other governments in a “suicidally co-dependent” way.

How about any group that has claimed “refugee” status for more than a few years? At some point, you’re not a refugee any more. You’ve either made a new life for yourself in a new place or you’re a deadbeat squatter or you’ve gone home, but you’re not a “refugee.”

Well, lemme see what you all bought with all that money, ay... a few cruise missiles, some atomic capability, plenty of ordnance...

why are any one of us here on this web sight if we are sick of politics, lol. Personally, I'm still here for making snarky comments, the ZOT threads, and the troop support. The rest of the psychos can sit on a spindle and twist.
