Does it ever sink in that the gov't robs you at gunpoint to pay poors and foreigners?

It's actually worse than that.

Since it is clear that how much revenue the government receives has basically zero to do with how much it believes it can spend, it's more accurate to say we are taxed for no reason at all.

Paying the so-called Poors in this country, meaning actual citizens, I can deal with VS the Ungodly amount of money we send around the world. No matter the situation of these individual Americans, I’ll always choose them compared to someone a ocean away. America/Americans first isn’t a bad thing, to me it’s common sense.

I thought about it today while I stood in line behind a couple who did not speak English and paid for their purchases with WIC.

I don't mind paying for the truly needy. But the amount of fraud, waste and abuse is atrocious and maddening.

We are also spending money for billionaires. It's not just the poor or foreigners

make sure foreign governments have plenty of our money in the bank.

it's sad you think that money goes to foreign governments

I’ve never been robbed at gunpoint.

How about Medicaid and Medicare providers who game and abuse the system on the backs of the taxpayers and even recipients? You know, like Medicaid providers in the states who are charging the government through outlets like Aetna for services not rendered on bogus patients? All with the acquiescence of Aetna, etc.

More like they rob you to make the rich richer

Do you not realize that it’s not going to poor people an foreigners?

All foreign aid is diverted offshore and then back into US corporations and special interest groups that make politicians wealthy.

It has to be done in foreign aid and foreign deals so the money is off the books of the central bank and therefore no longer has to be accounted for. This is the same reason we buy oil from foreign nations when we have more oil than anybody in the world capped off in the Gulf of Mexico and in Alaska.

It’s all a racketeering operation against the US citizens and it’s amazing to me that people can’t see it!

Every now and then I think about what' s actually going on and how happily people wait to get a tax refund so they can make a big stupid purchase. All so we can subsidize the lives of poor people and make sure foreign governments have plenty of our money in the bank.

Imagine the average blue collar worker...... warehouse worker, plumber, carpenter, electrician, etc. working their dirty dog asses off knowing their hard earned money is paying off the student loans of people who largely look down their noses at them and are generally on the opposite sides of the political divide.
