Why does the United States have people going hungry when [View all]
we give BILLIONS to oil companies that are ALREADY making BILLIONS of dollars? How come we can spend 100's of millions of dollars on the poor of OTHER countries to provide health and food, but can't take care of our own? How come we can spend BILLIONS of dollars on military equipment, but can't provide the care and other assistance needed for our service and ex-service PEOPLE?
How in HELL can the republicans cut food stamps, health care, and lots more cutting that hurts the poor? Are they really, really that CRAZY? (ok, that last one says it.)
Now, take a look at how much money is given to politicians campaigns by all the big companies, oil, food, insurance, investors, and on and on! Is there any possible way of changing this? (oh, just how many politicians, including many Dems) would be willing go give all that up?
