More Money for War

This past week the House passed a war spending bill, and this was the worst of its kind. The president had already asked for $103 billion, when the democrat majority congress added $21 billion of pork barrel spending.

That $21 billion includes $200 million for dairy farmers, $74 million for peanut farmers, $25 million dollars for spinach farmers. Also, this bill includes $2 billion for what I consider to pretty much be unconstitutional foreign aid for Lebanon and Eastern Europe.

That $21 billion of extra kick backs included in this "war spending" bill is completely used for the democrats to buy votes at tax payers expense. This is what American politics has come to. So and so won't vote unless his business gets x dollars in subsidies and kick backs.

Folks you have to realize that politicians no longer run Washington, but the large companies, who are completely unelected, run the show. Don't think for a second that high level politicians and political economists care for American citizens. Your family cares, your true friends care, and the government most certainly does not care.

Sorry to get political and preachy but this is a subject that I am very passionate about. I promise you that change will come...eventually. Change will come after the economy is ran into the dirt at the expense of the American consumer. Please protect yourself, and your wealth, buy gold.
