Sorry you feel that a claim of lies and slander is in order.
Foreign aid commitments from saddled Americans by bribed politicians has been my pet peeve for many years, so please tolerate my intolerance of this transfer of our wealth using the term “foreign aid”.
I equate foreign aid to the pro-sports owners that get free multi-billion dollar taxpayer built stadiums from their political cronies (that they bribe) so they can pay their celebrity workers 100 million dollar contracts, while the rest of us subsidize this transfer of wealth. Corruption and cronyism is always the game.
As a result of foreign aid every American faces higher taxes and we have less money here for what we need, even if it wasn’t borrowed from China (but it is). We have USA priorities be it roads, vets or whatever. Each American is on the hook for 50K to cover our own debt. When I see our debt building because politicians on the take give it away to other countries, we the American people are undoubtedly getting shafted.
Not one dime should leave the USA until our vet’s problems are solved, etc and the USA is back in the black. Rant about Jew hating BS all you want, but it isn’t going to change why the USA should be keeping our billions at home so as to rebuild the USA.
There something I find outrageous about sleazebag politicians giving my tax money away to other countries at the behest of lobbyists who promise they support their and reelection by promises on giving away my money that bothers me. I don’t care what country they represent, I want them out of my pockets. To repeat, I want them out of MY POCKETS now, and that is my right as a taxpayer without being being ridiculed as a racist by those on the dole.
Some like to say “these billions are only a rounding error”. For those politicians spending other people’s money it might be a rounding error, but for me every dime, let alone every billion counts. I want my money to stay right here reinvested in the USA. You want yours to go elsewhere then donate it directly, but from my taxes and through the USA Treasury?
A government that forcibly transfers my money elsewhere is transferring my wealth. It is our money and it needs to stay here otherwise it is a forced transfer of our wealth (by crooked politicians on the take) to other countries. Makes no difference on the country....if it is other countries and it needs to end.
Sorry if this overly wordy post offends your priorities.
