Republicans preach personal responsibility as an excuse not to provide government services to anyone and thus provide more money to the obscenely rich in this country. Whatever happened to the idea of moral responsibility for the messes this country creates here and in the rest of the world? If Bush had created a real Marshall Plan for Iraq instead of allowing Cheney and Halliburton to steal billions of dollars, there might be less unrest in the Middle East today. Even better, he should not have attacked Iraq in the first place! And Trump insisting that we should have stolen Iraq's oil certainly shows the world that the U.S. doesn't care to obey laws or treat other countries fairly. With this buffoon as president, we may create even more refugees through careless attacks. Why else does he want to build up the military if not to use it?
