The overlooked word is illegal. They are immigrants who are not supposed to be there, either because they have no visa or no sponsor for work. As a consequence they work for cash, deny other American those (menial) jobs and avoid the tax system.

Since you don't have the guts to be visible, tell us your name or where you are really trading from - will just refer to you as sick. Nice you copied something so as to appear you have a clue. You don't. Mikhail didn't just wake up one morning feeling good and declare he was pulling out of Afghanistan. The Soviets were getting their ass's handed to them. Their choppers (full of soldiers) were being shot out of the air like flies. Their soldiers were being ambushed all over the country. Blazing tanks all over the place. They didn't just leave. They were DRIVEN OUT by Afghan soldiers using American advisors, weaponry and money. Wanna know something really ironic -- bin laden was their leader -- loosely our ally. See, wars and foreign policy can get quite complicated -- why people like you need to stay away from it so as not to make fools of yourselves. As to the cost of war libs love to harp on - suppose the US had decided it was to expensive for us to get involved in WWII -- even you should be able to figure that out. You and your lib buddies really should stick to what you do best -- name calling and whining. And as to this thread -- "That's all I got to say bout that" Forrest Gump Have yo'self a wonderful day. sick.

Yeah, tell that to the folks who have come to the US LEGALLY. They are the ones who are being treated unfairly. Do everything right, follow the procedures, take the test, pay your taxes. Oh wait, why do that, I can just come over , sponge off the government, not pay taxes. All of you people who don't agree need to get a clue. Hollywood cracks me up the most, all the actresses in their gowns supporting countires where they would be be-headed if they dressed like that. They certainly wouldn't be able to showcase any of their talents and abilities, wouldn't have their fortunes, but yet they support these countires. Absolutely fucking absurd.

Why DT gives so much money to illegals? The USA has a 2mil homeless and if you share them all that money(113bn per year???) - it turns out that every homeless person could buy a ranch "per year".

I don't understand what you are getting at, so let me clarify my position. I hate war. I hate conflict. Unfortunately, anytime there's more than a few people in a area some of them gonna want what the others have worked to produce. All past wars are about possessions or religions. I am against the US getting into a war unless we are attacked or aggressively threatened. When we get into one -- get in, kick ass and go home. Period. Don't try to change them, don't get into nation building.

Don't hold your breath waiting for somebody to take our stick, bud. Ain't gonna happen in your lifetime. Read somewhere that one of our navy SEAL's sent bin laden to see his virgins. Back in the 80's a guy named Gorbachev tried to butt heads with a guy named Reagan. See, Russia was the Soviet Union back then. They tried to keep up with us in a little arms race. They came unglued. Not the Soviet Union anymore. Had to tear down a wall somewhere in Germany -- Berlin, I think. Freedom broke out all over the place. Then Ronnie Reagan and Maggie Thatcher left us and cotton puffs started leading us again. Finally, after 4 tries we finally got a president who says what he means and does what he says. Know lot of y'all don't like him. That's OK. He's our guy -- not yours. You not too keen on history, either. What brings great nations to their knees is allowing the countries mooches to start overtaking the countries producers. They quit teaching their children their history, why they are great. Quit teaching them government, economics, morality. Quit teaching them that there are winners and losers in life -- that they will often lose -- that it's important to get up and keep going till you win. They elect cream puffs that are more interested in getting re-elected, being liked or acquiring personal wealth than making sure the country is properly run. More reasons, but you get the picture.

It is about time that Europe spent more on 'NATO'. I suspect most of the European countries have lulled themselves into a false sense of security believing that there is this mythical force that will spring to their defence if conflict should arise. They have failed to take on board that they themselves are NATO. If the members are all in the same state as the UK .... God help us

Quoting Walker1957
The one critical item in these statements is the word "Spending". The recovery from the GFC? Manufacturing? Rebuilding the functions that were once truly "Great" and produced for development and savings. An over value dollar, stocks running up at an unprecedented rate and period, low personal growth, low savings, high debt. The list runs into education and positioning for middle class employed and unemployed. Unemployed youth. Poverty and the underclasses. What are the priorities? War?
Walker, you bring up many interesting points. A large book could be written to answer. Spending is, perhaps the largest problem facing any country. In 2017 the US is slated to collect 3.21 trillion in taxes and slated to spend 3.65 trillion. I have seen it stated that the waste alone will be 1 trillion. I suspect it is higher than that. Trump is doing more to cut the budget and waste than any president in my lifetime. He has frozen federal hiring (except military) and is quietly cutting many programs. You won't hear any of it in the mainstream media -- doesn't fit their agenda. Democrats screaming bloody murder. See, money is power -- and the less power the government has -- the more freedom the citizens have. That doesn't fit the politicians agenda!!

Thanks for the history troop. A lot of people do not know how dangerous and well trained Bin Laden was, and that was because we trained him. That is why they always sent special forces.

.... As to the cost of war libs love to harp on - suppose the US had decided it was to expensive for us to get involved in WWII -- even you should be able to figure that out.
We would all be speaking German in Europe ... perhaps, else Russian. Although it is difficult to see how you could have stayed out after Japan nearly totalled the US Navy.

{quote} Could be right. Im no expert. but if you are already outspending your major adversaries each by over 6:1 hard to see why you might need to make that 7:1 when you have 45 million citizens (15% population) living below poverty level. But hey Im not arguing.. Im just asking.
Much of the cost of our military spending has been total waste, unneeded equipment and bases, bad defense contracts, and political payoffs. That is changing, as we speak. As to the 45 million poor (didn't check the figures, assume they are correct). First off, lot of them are just lazy and don't want to work. There are help wanted signs all over the place where I live - but they are for skilled labor -- too many don't want to take the time to learn a skill. Back in the 1960's, Lyndon Johnson came up with his great society. Bunch of welfare programs to "help the poor". Even named it the "war on poverty". Sounded sooo good . Problem was, it was nothing more than a democrat vote buying scheme. Even got a bunch of republicans to go along with it cause it sounded sooo good. Here we are, 55 or so years later -- we have dropped 22 TRILLION bucks down the rathole and we have more "poor" than ever. BTW: The typical US poor generally have a car, flat screen TV, cell phone and don't look like they have missed any meals.

Rebuilding the functions that were once truly "Great" and produced for development and savings. An over value dollar, stocks running up at an unprecedented rate and period, low personal growth, low savings, high debt. The list runs into education and positioning for middle class employed and unemployed. Unemployed youth. Poverty and the underclasses. What are the priorities? War?

How else has can you explain the mighty America being hijacked by its Arch rival Russia without even Trump nor the American People realizing.

This is gonna be rated as one of the smartest take over of a mighty country in history!

Not because you nor most dont realize this means its not a full throttled take over by Russia. They are laughing their ass off as they get to choose a useless Commander in Chief!

common sense would dictate that countries get ruined as BushII proved when they try to play with economics of a country while not understanding basic economics.

"By the mid-1980s, the Soviet contingent was increased to 108,800 and fighting increased throughout the country, but the military and diplomatic cost of the war to the USSR was high.
By mid-1987 the Soviet Union, now under reformist leader Mikhail Gorbachev, announced it would start withdrawing its forces."

"Operation Cyclone was one of the longest and most expensive covert CIA operations ever undertaken;funding began with $20$30 million per year in 1980 and rose to $630 million per year in 1987. Funding continued after 1989 as the mujahideen battled the forces of Mohammad Najibullah's PDPA during the civil war in Afghanistan (19891992)."
