What the Hell is wrong with the people that run this country!
Someone please tell me what the Hell’s is wrong with the people that run this country, Republicans and Democrats alike. When the Democrats had control of the House and Senate; they were not able to accomplish much as they were to busy in fighting amongst themselves and letting the people who really needed their help down.
The Republicans have only been interested in how much money they can keep in their donor’s pocket even if it comes from the poor and middle class, while blaming the Democrats for spending too much; at the same time using their office too protect the special interest groups that fund their campaigns.
Do you really know what the major reason the US is “broke”; and why we cannot help seniors, veterans, and orphans, homeless? It is because in the last few years alone, America has provided aid to Haiti, Chile, Pakistan, Libya, Egypt and Turkey and Japan, literally, billions of dollars in aide.
America should and always try and help those in the world that need humanitarian assistance when disasters occur. But forgetting our retired seniors living on a ‘fixed income’ by cutting the little income they now receive and leavening with little or no aid. These citizens don’t get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Billions of dollars and tons of food to foreign countries! The people of America should come first!
We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans; does that make any sense? America the richest country in the world that has millions homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without ‘needed’ medicine, and mentally ill without treatment.
Yet politicians strived to make sure to pass bills for people around the world every session. Ships and planes are lining up around the country right now with food, water, tents clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies, being shipped out while people at home are starving.
Imagine if the government gave the people of America that same support to those in need here at home, that they give to other countries. We would not have a hunger and homeless problem. Their actions gives the impression that the US government cares more about other people in the world than it does for it’s own citizens.
Changing those elected is not the problem; the problem is changing how they think when it comes to the needs of all America’s citizens!
