This is the right answer. A book 2000 years old that knows more than anyone alive to this day.

What other 1% of the budget are y'all so completely obsessed with like this 1%?

I’ll take my 1% back. Thank you.

Do you realize that that's exactly what pulled us into WWI? The Germans kept attacking and killing American civilians on shipping vessels. We were going to stay out of that war.

And when that happens we’ll frick them up, accordingly.

It can absolutely work that way. We choose to stick our nose where it doesn’t belong.

We depend on too much trade going back and forth between us and the rest of the world for that.


And that’s our fricking fault. These hypothetical other countries would come crawling back begging to us to trade, after they threw their temper tantrum.

Because it is a battlefield for a much larger regional proxy war which has been raging for decades.

Because it most often serves our strategic interests to do so. It saves us from having to send our own troops to stabilize a situation that we would rather see stabilized, which not only saves our soldiers' lives, but also a significant amount of money. I gave you an answer. Now answer some of my questions.


If you’re just going to spew regurgitated talking points of the mainstream media, find somewhere else to do it.

You have provided zero legitimate points to sway any argument. The military industrial complex does not care about American soldiers, but they know that every political member in their pocket will be voted out the day they decide to send American soldiers. Not one war since World War Two was fought for legitimate reasons that would benefit the American public, not one. This is all about the MIC gravy train that has gone on since the creation of the intelligence agencies. I’ll be ready support a war when it arrives on our doorstep. Until then, we have enough natural resources to support the entire globe within the boundaries of the United States. The time of inflating our way to make past debts less needs to end yesterday.

Israel is not “ a shithole “. Historically, it’s the Holy Land for those who built Western Civilization, and currently it’s one of the most modern countries in the world. Just saying. Although I appreciate your generosity fatigue.



My father spent a few months in Israel during his wanderlust years in the early 70's. He generally liked all people and countries he went to but found Israelis to "unfriendly jerks". Israel doesn't GAF about the United States for anything outside of getting our grifts.

If you think there is some "Holyland" that needs money and protecting then you are free to empty your savings and or go join their fight. Other than that, leave me and my pocketbook out of your spiritual convictions.

Let them battle it out.


We are contractually obligated to one side. And it's a far cry from a grifter state to a state that glorifies child rapists and murderers in the name of Allah.

On a tangent, while I personally don't give a shite about Israel, they need to kill all of Hamas. If we're being honest, they need to kill every Palestinian in Gaza. It doesn't matter who does it. It just needs to be done. They are terrorists. They elected terrorists. They have taught their young children to be terrorists. Their culture is of rape, murder, and terror.

There are no good Palestinians, and they laugh at the weakness you show when you talk about killing their innocents. There are none. Period.

I have no sympathy when a terrorist dies. Let Israel kill them all so we don't have to do it later, or scratch our asses and say, "well why did they put a dirty nuke in Manhattan and kill millions, hur dur?"

Trillions disappear around the world with the MIC and the Pentagon. Trillions upon trillions. Nobody even knows where the money goes. It just vanishes into a corrupt system of elite politicians and corporations.

You really need a reality check.the national budget has nothing to do with the potholes in Michigan. That’s a Michigan problem, you received Federal funds with the understanding that you would take of that.

The stupidity of the average local voter is absolute. Alabama added a 10 cent tax to every gallon of gas. That money is being used to repair what we drive. Trouble we let this lack of upkeep go for long it takes time to catch up.

You applauded an infrastructure bill and your socialists spent the money on social programs instead of real bridges…..you were lied to and we knew you being lied to. That money was build and fix bridges.
