America's Money

dimetime · #1 02-26-2011, 03:46 PM

Where is all the money in this country going these days. It looks to me that it is all going to every other country on this planet while America falls apart and suffers dearly!!

Sorry I am just really pissed off watching Obama ruin all of us. The rich live the good and easy life while everyone else in the country suffers and struggles daily to make ends meet!!

I sure as hell hope that who ever is next in office will actually care about THIS country and take action to make it a better place. Instead of giving billions of dollars to other countries to help them out. First off our country is the one that needs to be a priority rather than everyone else.

Sorry everyone I just really needed to vent a little. I feel a little bit better now.

I agree with you, but this isn't Obama's doing. This has been festering for a very long time.

I agree that we need to stop rebuilding other countries and take care of our own. Charity begins at home!

A good portion of the problem is Obama he is the one offering billions of dollars to other countries, he is also the one who has taken more trips during this presidency than the last 3 presidents combined.

Obama wastes money and doesn't care about it one bit. He is this countries biggest problem right now!!!! Once he is out of office I hope that the next president is willing to put this country as top priority and get us built back up to where we should be!!!

This may have been festering for a long time, but it is a situation that does not need to be added to. Instead, there needs to be a way found to fix the problems this country has with money instead of spending like they do.

I have to agree with the taking care of the United States first. We have people living on the streets, kids that go to bed hungry and elderly people that cant afford to live as they should because they dont have enough money.

And to get help in this country, one has to literally jump through hoops while money is sent elsewhere.

It is seriously amazing what our president and this countries government overlooks when they are handing out money!

I would love to see someone in office put this country before everyone else and get things taken care of. I guess we can all hope for this in the future.

I am wondering if those who voted Obama into the White House are not regretting what they have done to this country or not? I know if I would have voted for him I sure would be upset!!

I would love to see the president and all those in the government take a pay cut to the point where they are living as most Americans do, then I bet they would get off their asses quickly to make sure things got better!!!

I don't believe for a minute that they give a damn about what the spend or where. You know why because we don't seem to give a damn either. Yeah sure we go out and vote but then we sit back on our haunches and bitch.

We have to stand up and say enough we aren't going to take this lying down anymore. Do you have the address for you representative. Write a letter. Go to the state capital and let them here what you have to say.

Get a petition going that relates to a cause that your sick of them ignoring. Anything that we do to bring attention to the fact that we need them to do their jobs is better than nothing.

I believe that is how we got into this mess to begin with. We have for far to long believed the politions are going to do the right thing because they said they would. Time to let them know we are paying attention and they aren't doing those things and we wanna know WHY NOT!

carol b, I have to agree. Most of the problem is that we do, as you say, sit back and let it happen and keep on happening.

We do have a say in what goes on and should contact those that will listen to us and present our opinions to the powers that be.

If one woman could stop prayer in schools, think what the rest of us could do if we would just get up off our lazy duffs and make our selves heard.

I have signed countless petitions to get things changed, and so far nothing has happened, if I could afford to go to the state capital to get my voice heard that is what I would do, but the prices of everything going up travel is practically impossible.

There are some who do try to get things changed, but if there are only a few then the voices of those few are quickly lost.
