We have to cut back feeding the poor etc here so we can send $ millions to various foreign crap holes. Detroit can rot, we gotta fix bridge's elsewhere.

Here's the biggest irony which I tried to point out: we won't spend money on our infrastructure/health care/etc. but in Afghanistan and Iraq we sent billions to... build infrastructure/health care and... irony!... a strong central gov't. So when we're unleashing our freedom on liberated nations we believe a strong central gov't is absolutely necessary, except here at home where it is of course the enemy.

I remember posting a story about how we spent like $10MM to build a nice park in Baghdad (not to mention our $500 million dollar embassy).

And yet it just goes right over people's heads.

BTW in both instances it was a fail because obviously there was no accounting for any of that money or where it went--all supported by the people now who are deficit hawks allegedly who want to crack open America's books for an audit.

WTF.

That's probably why my voting days are over. If all I see is bumbling incompentance, Then my vote will be for no one, for anything. Well, until they get a few new horses in the race anyway.

This is why Hannity and Co. are an advertisers wet dream. Some people will believe literally anything these talking heads tell them.

How the hell are people supposed to find work without a phone anyways? If a prospective employer can't get ahold of you, you're not going to get a job.

These sort of minor investments pay off big time in the long run.
