I have always been amazed that our government can't find the money to help Americans, but they can easily find trillions to fight ridiculous and unnecessary wars. Why must we cut programs that help give Americans a hand up, but we continue throwing money down the rathole called the Afghan War (while accomplishing nothing)? We are being ruled by fear instead of love -- and that will always lead a nation astray.
Not to mention that our citizens are so war weary, they will be pro-diplomacy and anti-war for generations. Maybe, just maybe, this will re-invigorate our efforts at peace around the world. Maybe...?
