What We Have Here, is a Failer of Perception
Oh, goody goody, one of my favorite pet peeves is being discussed on the hill. To be precise, foreign aid. You see, I have a completely different view then the guys wielding our fat wallet. Well at least they think its fat and I also have a different view on that. We are broke and owe everybody money. The situation is that we are trying to buy everybody’s friendship a decades old tradition. Six hundred billion split between Israel and Egypt in the last decade or so. Not counting billions in military hardware.
I’m going of track for a minute. Just who would the Egyptians use those billions of hardware on? Do you think it might be Israel? The same Israel we gave billions in military hardware to? Okay, think with me, do these dealings make any sense? We are trying to buy their friendship and providing them with superior weapons to kill each other with. Friendship be damned, let them wipe each other out and then we can step in and take over. Why should we pay for these nations to fight and kill one another?
The reality in DC is that the Dem’s think it would be bad for our world image to stop foreign aid and besides, it’s only 1% of the budget. The rep’s would like to eliminate all foreign aid so as to help our citizens and lower the national debt. You know I could give a gaseous flatulence about the size of foreign aid, there are billions of our tax bucks going where we do not want it to go. Even if it is 1%, with even 1 of those billions we could keep some schools open (in my school district we HAVE to close 3 schools, putting a burden on the teachers left after the massacre of layoffs.) pay some debts. So the fricken what, it’s a start. These crappy suck asses that won’t help these United States should be made to send their kids to an underfunded, under staffed school with 40 kids to the class. Is there any way we can get some reality into these smug, self righteous, bags of hot air? Pump some dry ice up their yinger yangers?
