Help me please

or those lousy bastards
Gosh, whom do you think I am squawking about?  Bingo! But you are only half right. Nonetheless half is a really big chunk of the aid and support the U.S. gives to corporations and other countries. The government takes your money and plays international monopoly with it. Dozens of countries receive a billion plus dollars every year. Israel gets better than 1.5 billion dollars a year plus free military aid like fighter jets that cost 500 million to build, first allotment was a dozen last year. Egypt has been in line for a billion a year since Sadat made peace with Israel. We gave billions of military hardware to Egypt. We get to say we sold the fighters because we gave them billions and then they bought the jets with the loan money. WTF? Various African and South American countries are in line and get fed our U.S. dollars. In the Mid East, Iraq, Afghanistan are raking it in. In the Pacific, Japan, Taiwan, many south pacific countries receive aid, also India, Pakistan etc.
Question two. Where do you think our money goes too? I don’t care what your answer is, it’s wrong because the problem is much deeper and more expensive then imagined. For most third world nations at least half the money we beg them to take goes into the pockets of their dictators. South American countries are paid to keep the peace, pretend to have elections and pretend they fight the drug war. We, the citizens of the U.S.A. are paying billions of billions of dollars to support men of evil intent and their regimes. We pay big oil, farmers, timber companies and whore houses to use our resources. That is not the way to do it. They need to pay use for these resources. Crap, we are giving away our heritage. Put a cap on their gallon charge at the pump, etc.
If you aren’t greedy you are still contributing by allowing the status quo. Status quo being we give monies to everybody except ourselves, even when we are broke and have to borrow to give away. Hey, if you run your household budget this way you will be bankrupt and in the soup line in 6 months. I think we understand this. It is crystal clear that our elective officials do not. Rather they don’t have to be because they are fat cats and could care less.
Little story, ongoing to be sure. The way it used to be was a lobbyist would slip a congressman a couple hundred grand and it’s a done deal. Congress made rules so they were not supposed to do that. They didn’t, they wrote books, printed hundreds of thousands of book and every book is sold to on corporation. The corp. get a write off, the congress gets bought, and we get stuck with the printing costs. The old fashion way cost us less.
This is what I want, stop giving away our resources! Let those companies make money by earning it. Stop giving aid to everybody else, our own nation is under extreme stress. Obama is handling the problem with a machine gun, mowing down helpless citizens for a problem created by the government. Our government that turned a blind eye after getting their piece of pie. This government doesn’t work, they stabbed us in the back, kick them all out. Better yet throw them out and keep all there stuff.
