Cronkite: . . . because we hog so much of the world's wealth . . .

We created that wealth out of NOTHING but our own hard work. We didn't steal it. Senile old POS.

[Tao Yin]

No shit!

[Let's Roll]

Uncle Walter, you are so out of touch.

[D. Brian Carter]

Not only did we create such wealth, how much of it do we, as a country, distribute across the globe, for the express purpose of building hospitals, providing food, assisting in educating the poor, etc. etc.? Can anyone even quantify the trillions of dollars we have provided to all nations and peoples, whether in direct aid for the aforementioned items, or in military assistance (saving Europe's ass in WWI & WWII, for example), or in the rebuilding of ruined cities, or to prop up broken economies??? When will our nation be recognized for any of the GOOD that we do, any of the POSITIVE things we bestow upon all humanity? Maybe it's time to withdraw into an isolationist corner again, and let the rest of the world devise solutions to all their problems without ANY of our aid and assistance.

We didn't steal it. Senile old POS.

Please tell me what POS stands for everyone keeps using that and it is driving me mad.

Don't say that to Walter, he bought Lenin's line about
US and Western imperialist exploitation; hook, line,
and sinker.
