New Orleans needs rebuilding
California fires (Homes need to be rebuilt)
Childcare/Healthcare
Social Security
Before we help any other country, we NEED to fix ours first.
Then we can help other countries.
And we need to quit accussing other countries of building weapons when we DO NOT know if they are building them. Remember Iraq.....Supposed to have had WMD, we killed Saddam.....What have we found? Anything?
Enough is Enough. We need a President to take care of US.

All I am saying is that if we have Billions of dollars to spend on other counties, Why can't we have Biliions for ours.

The USA doesn't care about other countries, it cares about the resources like oil, metals and strategic places. Very little is spend on supporting countries, most is given in form of credit to buy USA weapons. The USA has 787 military bases around the world, China 12 and Russia 17. The USA spends 1 Trillion on military, China and Russia combined 100 Billion.
That's where your tax money goes, in the coffers of the CEO's of the military industries (Many politicians are former CEO's and Board members, Cheney-Haliburton, Cheney's wife - Lockheed)

We do what we do because it is the right think to do. We take care here also but one cannot expect to have everything done for them without there doing something themselves to assist those who need assistance. Cradle to grave entitlements do nothing to make one a better person. Peace

That will never happen as politics is no longer about whats best for the country, but he or she who has the most money controls the country.
