Since we (the US) are so wonderful, we should propose to forgive 220 billion in foreign loans to all of our former USA colonies in Africa, Asia, and South America.

Oh yea, we did not have colonies that stole their wealth and insured poverty like Spain, Great Britain, Holland, Portugal, France, Germany, etc…..

But, doesn't it sound Good! It is a liberal idea to sound wonderful, say you care about the poor, while you gorge on a huge banquet (as in what is taking place in South Africa right now) but actually do nothing to solve anything. This way you can keep saying how much you care while accomplishing nothing. Makes you feel good inside as you eat the lobsters, drink the wine, and partake in the pastries.

Tell the truth!

This is a classic case of "symbolism over substance." Amen.
