The United States of America is, or use to be the richest country country in the world.
It's hard to say if that is still true. we have a debt ceiling that is maxed, AND SHOULD NOT BE RAISED, IT SHOULD BE CAPPED.
So as the debate continues about where we should cut expenses, I know this sounds unthinkable, but hear me out one this.
We spend BILLIONS of dollars each and every year to help other nations, probably more than all the other giving nations put together. Yet our country is broke.
If a country has a disaster, that is a legitamate reason to give money to them. As long as a panel is set up to see where the money is going.
Take Haiti for instance. Nobody has a clue where that money went, and the place still looks like a disaster area. Accountability is first and foremost before $1 is handed out.
Sending money to Afganastan or Egypt so they can have Arms to shoot back at us is a little over the top, THEY DON'T NEED OUR MONEY !
Like I said, I don't have a problem with charity, it's when the charity starts flying back at our soldiers in the shape of missles that I have a big problem with.
Congress should take a serious look at this, the countries we are dishing out BILLIONS of dollars to every year.
I think we could cut this boondoggle in half and still have enough for emergencies.
THESE ARE THE THINGS WE NEED TO GET RID OF IF WE WANT TO CAP THE DEPT CEILING !
