The answer to you ‘why’ question; Because we are being led by stupid people.
It’s not all that complicated.
But it’s ALWAYS been that way.
America is expected to take care of other countries to the tune of billions and billions.
We are expected to be the ‘Daddy’ to everybody.
We are expected to be the peace keepers, the breadbasket to the world.
What do other countries do to help those countries who need money?
We are in a desperate situation. Our debt is astronomical.
Our Seniors are practically on starvation due to pitifully low SS.
Our veterans who put their lives on the line to keep us free are suffering.
Our bridges and roads are falling apart.
The list is endless.
We need to cut the handouts to other countries and take care of our own!
