Over $3 billion annually for a nation of 8 million people.

Can't fund NASA.
Can't save Social Security.
Can't secure the border.
Always find plenty of money to send overseas, especially to Israel.

I'm no fan of Israel but $621 million is a drop in the bucket for us

Israel needs money to fund the military action in Gaza. I don't understand what the fuss is about.

America has a very compelling interest to give Israel money. Not only is the country one of our few true friends in the region, but it very well may be the one thing preventing the formation of an Islamic superpower. Can't have that.

I'd much rather give that money to Israel than Pakistan or Egypt. Egypt is #2 but we give money to a lot of countries. So this is nothing new.

How much did we give Mexico, Guatemala , Honduras, and Venezuela this week?
Is Ron Paul writing his newsletter these days or does he still outsource for profit?

Are you suggesting we pay for roads out of the general fund? I always thought it made sense to pay for them from gas taxes only.

Still wondering what happened to the $800 billion stimulus (or whatever it was) in 2009 that was supposed to go to "shovel ready projects" to rebuild roads and bridges and other infrastructure needs.
Oh, and since we have not had a Federal Budget since then, that money continues to be rolled over and spent every year to the tune of over $4 TRILLION, all originally earmarked for infrastructure repair and "shovel ready projects," most notably, roads and bridges.
Sounds to me like one of the greatest scams of all time. Now, we are hearing that we need MORE money for infrastructre and nothing has been spent on it during Obama's entire presidency. Yet, there is no accountability at all.
Nice. $621 million is nothing.

Does anyone ever give aid money to the US? Seems like we're always giving, never receiving.

Truth be known...Israel is the point of our Military spear re hegemonic Islamism. Israel WILL do (because either they do or they die) what we could NEVER do. We all know what that is. Make sausage.

Israel can go frick itself. Maybe they should slang some more diamonds and buy some mortgage backed securities to fund this bullshite.
I do not give a frick about anything in the Middle East. Lost cause.

Israel is the U.S.'s enforcer in the middle east. Anytime the U.S. needs business handled over there, they send in Israel to get the job done. And I have no problem with that. NASA is a waste of money and the border is basically impossible to secure. They'll always find ways to get in. Money is being wasted in many different places and Israel is far from one of them.

Why is this important? What does NASA provide that makes it a bigger priority than a plethora of other problems that America currently has?
