People helping people and you **** on it. Way to go.


Right over your head, again. What the kids are doing is admirable...but
what a wealthy country blows its resources on instead of taking care of
those of its people in need...is not admirable.


The $609 billion military spending in the federal budget sounds like a
lot when you consider it by itself but have you ever viewed exactly
*how* it compares to the rest of the federal budget?

The Federal government spends far more on domestic social and welfare
programs than it spends on the military ... over 4 times as much, and
growing.
