Lehman Brothers, America's fourth largest investment bank, is on the verge of collapse as it will be claiming bankruptcy soon. Combine that with the Fannie May and Freddie Mac bailout, two major hurricane/storms in the south, a two front war, a cold war with Russia, a merging war with Pakistan (the Pakistan military stopped an illegal U.S. helicopter raid going across its borders), as well as many other factors, and what do you think is gonna happen?
Our tax dollars are going to prop up the rich in the FAILING banking systems because of their bad decisions. Our tax dollars are going to two foreign wars. Our tax dollars are going into a cold war with Russia and possibly an outright war with Russia within the time frame of the next adminstration, if the whole economy hasn't collapsed by then. Our tax dollars probably won't be going to help the folks who are suffering because of the two storms in the gulf region, but they will undoubtedly go to wealthy types who get paid not to help those people (remember Katrina?). And a whole list of other stuff...
All of that tax money, being given to the excessively wealthy, means less infrastructure. Means lives. Means humans en masse will suffer within the borders of the U.S. as well as beyond the current borders.
The good news is...U.S. arms dealers are making billions selling arms to folks who claim allegiance to U.S. global domination, but there are so many nations full of folks angry enough at the U.S. to turn their guns on U.S.; guns purchased from gazillionaire U.S. arms dealers.
"Things that make you go Hmmm..."
Other than that...HAVE A NICE DAY!
