They feed the rich and forget about the poor, so I had lost respect for the government a long time ago. They want to control everyone and they don't care who they hurt as long as they get their way. It's all about money and power with them and the hell with the people, unless they're rich people of course! I hate greed!
So America should stop handing out free food to drought stricken countries?
We should stop sending all the help in the form of free supplies, volunteer rescue and medical personnel and financial help when a disaster strikes other nations?
We should encourage all the private American relief agencies to spend all their time and money helping the marginally poor here in the states and ignore the devastatingly poor in other countries?
Montana, most of us are not blind to the flaws of our home nation but please get a clue about how much good that America does in the world without asking anything back for it.
Please realize that America isn't the 'font of all evil' that some nations want it portrayed as.
Perhaps we should just pull all our help back to home and watch our quality of life improve even MORE over other nations while theirs slips farther and farther into the toilet.
But we won't do that ... why ?? Because we care about those less fortunate than ourselves.
Oh yes ... thats the evil americans for you...
