    We still have troops in Germany and Japan, nobody's bitching about that.

    Spending more money on poverty will only lead to more poverty. Look how well it's worked so far. While I believe there should be a safety net of some kind for when people fall on hard times, it should not be a way of life. Giving people something for nothing is more oppressive than any dictator. Because people become dependent on a handout, and once they are dependent... No Army can free them of their shackles.

    I am not talking handouts whatso ever. Poverty is usually tied to education(where funds are being cut at all levels). Yeah, but we achieved alot of that(or could have) in a much shorter time. The longer we stay, the longer we control oil. Hense why they have a police force, a government, and yet we are still there. Firefighters, police, education, all getting budget cuts. Less infrastructure, means more poverty.
