Is it just me or is anyone else concerned that the United States Government is gearing up to feed millions of Haiti people?  Providing aid in a natural disaster is one thing, but to feed millions for people for god know who long is quite another.  If you feel sorry for these poor bastards, by all means donate to the cause, but don't waste our tax dollars, when we are struggling to take care of ourselves.  Donating to charity is noble and all but no one should have to donate when your suffering right here at home. 

So what's our exit stratagy there? We going to foot the bill to provide security,  rebuild have the country,  and feed millions for years to come?  I for one am very concerned we are getting ourselves into another Iraq or Afganistan where we are spending Billions of dollars a year, for years and years without any sign of the end in sight.

America can no longer afford to spend 100's of billions of dollars in aid to other countries and get nothing in return.  If anyone hasn't noticed,  America is beginning to falter, High unemployment,  Unmanage levels of National Debt,  High Taxes,  even the state govenments are in Budget crisis.  It's time to more concerned with ourselves,  and less about others that never have and most likely never will give a damn about us.
