We're "broke" & can't help our own Seniors, Veterans, Orphans, Homeless etc.,?????????
In the last months we have provided aid to Haiti , Chile , and Turkey . And now Pakistan .....home of bin Laden, not to mention all of the illegal aliens.............. Literally, BILLIONS of DOLLARS !!
Our retired seniors living on a 'fixed income' receive no aid nor do they get any breaks while our government and religious organizations pour Hundreds of Billions of $$$$$'s and Tons of Food to Foreign Countries!
We have hundreds of adoptable children who are shoved aside to make room for the adoption of foreign orphans.
AMERICA: a country where we have homeless without shelter, children going to bed hungry, elderly going without 'needed' meds, and mentally ill without treatment -etc,etc. YET.....................
They have a 'Benefit' for the people of Haiti on 12 TV stations, ships and planes lining up with food, water, tents clothes, bedding, doctors and medical supplies.
Imagine if the *GOVERNMENT* gave 'US' the same support they give to other countries.
Sad, isn't it?
