Government has been giving away the wealth of the U.S. since the end of WW11, then it really kicked into high gear in the early 60's. And, politicians have been getting rich doing it ever since.


U.S. government was established to represent citizens, NOT TO RULE OVER THEM.

The last action of all despots is to loot the treasury. And here we are.

There is no down side to a full pantry.


They will vote our way into socialism, We will have to shoot our way out.

Too late. There is no way out of this insolvency without serious suffering.

Rush used to say that because America came out of WWII relatively unscathed, the feeling was we had to forgo our best national interests to benefit the other nations that had taken the brunt of the damage and casualties. That idea became entrenched in our policy and never went away, even after the other nations recovered and prospered. It affects not only defense, but trade policy, and other nations have been using it against us, and not only getting rich from it, but using it to finance their incredibly generous benefits for their citizens. They’re playing us for fools and picking our pockets.

Sen. Paul said something I’ve long believed, we can have a debate about whether or not financing the war in Ukraine is in our interest, but we never do, it’s only said that we have to stop the Russians now to keep them from further expansion. Maybe that’s true, maybe not, but Europe has far more to gain or lose that we do, and they seem less than all-in on supporting Ukraine, maybe so they can continue to bring in hordes of immigrants and provide those generous bennies to them. One has to wonder how they plan to feed them under the proposed anti-agriculture policies, maybe with Ukrainian wheat purchased from the Russians after the war is over?

One thing is certain, whenever government money is being spent, the cockroaches on both ends of the exchange are taking their cut; someone here is doubtless funneling big money to our members of Congress, and a lot of the money actually going to Ukraine is getting stolen there. They even admitted it not long ago and sacrificed a few officials to show they were watching the purse.


What fresh Hell is this?

Get ready, the 3 B's and all that. Gather in all that is yours. I doubt we will see an election.
Laugh at me if you want, but if I am wrong. What will it matter?

He's one of the only ones in Washington that has our national interest in mind. Hope he succeeds in torpedoing the bill. Mitch has thrown off the cloak and we are seeing exactly what he is.

He's right but that aid is a drop in the bucket compared the trillions spent for things like "the inflation reduction act" which did the exact opposite of its name.

There's no debate and no accountability. Perfect scam.


@jameslavish

If you work 40 hrs/wk: at 5% inflation and after 5 years, you need a 28% pay raise or to work 44 more hours (*one full extra week* per month+) to make up the difference.

This is inflation

Maybe some good will come from this. Russia may just kill them all and set up a DMZ.
