Not split down the middle!!

In the eyes of many a million dollars is a lot, and a billion dollars, well let’s just say, is a dream come true. That’s what the United States literally pushes into the hands of those fighting wars. Just imagine what you could do with it. Education, food, social security, protection, health, social services, jobs, government, and much more can be taken care of. Not that these things aren’t already taken care of but they could use more money. As I said in my last post only 56 percent of the national budget is used for this. That is about half the budget. Why is it that the other half is used on only one thing, wars, while the rest is used for about a thousand other things? That obviously isn’t being split evenly. With the cost of the war rising quickly it doesn’t look like anything will change for the good. It does seem that if the Iraq War also known as Operation Iraqi Freedom continues then more and more tax-payers money will be spent. Meaning even less money will be provided for rather good causes that help us survive.
