Actually, I think we are in over 130 countries with over 700 bases around the world. God knows what our troops are doing there, I guess providing for the defense of these third world rat holes so whatever tin cup dictator happens to be flavor of the month there can spend more on social programs.
But, then again, our state deparment bureaucrats tell us we need allies amongst these socialist thugs to play our chess games, and keep balances of power and who knows what other rotgut globalist plans.
This blatant, gross waste of taxpayer dollars has got to stop. This is breaking the back of the average Joe.
When I think of the billions of dollars squandered while our borders are wide open, Americans w/o health insurance, taxes (federal, state and local) are egregiously high....why I just get a bit upset.
Our government has strayed so ded-gum far from it’s constitutionally mandated duties, we think it’s normal now.
Well, it’s not. We are losing this country. Our representative republic has become an Oligarchy. That is a government basically controlled by a smaller group of elites.
This countries government was formed for and by the people.
I am afraid it has morphed into a government for and by the foreign and corporate lobbyist.
Read a report a few weeks ago.....the rich are getting richer at a faster pace at anytime in Americas history while the average Joe-six pack has seen a decline in wages and standard of living.
Another report showing how corporate execs are reaping in up to 500 times the average workers compensation.
These globalist are sucking the juice of life outta our nation. Greed is killing this nation.
Free trade....that’s the mantra they use. It may be free, but it ain’t fair trade. These greedy power hungry elites are skimming the wealth from your labor.
