Why are we sending billions of dollars to everyone but the tax paying American ? We're bailing out every other country but our own. Homeless Vets and
just homeless people are taking over, billions spent to house and feed an out of control immigration crisis and the average American is barely getting
by.
FJB and the Democrats.
So if you and everyone else received, say, 200k from the government, what do you think that would do to our economy? Would everyone else suddenly be
able to build new houses, drive Ferraris and go on international vacations for months at a time?
Honestly, in our #ed up greed-driven society, the price of EVERYTHING would go up exponentially and if you thought inflation was bad now....
I don't advocate for foreign aid. I'd rather see that funding funneled to infrastructure projects but sadly it's not how it works.
Give the money to foreign governments
Foreign governments send it back via payments to defense contractors
Defense contractors support the polititians that pushed for the funding
Rinse...repeat
It's a shell game. Poor Abdul in sand-ridden country du'jour isn't suddenly out buying Rolexes..
