basilico:You went straight to Minnesota, but have totally avoided the fact that millions of Americans across the country are now paying through their noses for health premiums. Whilst war mongering is ongoing that benefits not one poor American. Allow the investigations for Minnesota to be completed, so that we can have a concrete grasp on how much fraud we are talking about. And then a spend comparison can be made. But I will tell you, with the cost trend of $1billion per day to wage war with Iran, I doubt what ever fraud you think has happened in Minnesota can be compared to it. But know this. No monies spent on the welfare of citizens is ever enough. If a country can’t take care of its own people (that pay taxes), but focus on fighting needless wars, then that country’s leadership needs to be questioned. |

bayelsaowei:You are talking past me and you are more focused on ad-hominems instead of understanding what's been said. You are saying how the government should work, I am saying how government actually work. One is based on realism, the other is based on perception. For example. A man jumps from a building and hit the ground and die. Then you come and say the man should have grown wings and fly. That's your perception of how reality should be. But me I am saying if a man jumps from a building he is going to fall to his death. That's realism. The world is not governed by morality or goodwill. States must prepare for threats regardless of what you think people should do. So defense spending is necessary. So you are making a moral argument and government policy, but my point still stands. Yes Government should prioritize welfare but the problem is: welfare programs depend on security and stability. Without thst - infrastructure gets destroyed economic activity collapses tax revenue disappears, etc. After Russian invasion of Ukraine, they had to divert huge resources to defense because survival became the priority. Countries without effective security like Somalia during state collapse cannot maintain functioning healthcare or education systems. So there is a sequence - Security > economic stability > tax revenue > welfare programs Many countries that spend less on defense can do so because someone else provides security. I was complaining about the UK which refused to send their ships to protect their own people. They said americans already have ships there. So the welfare you see in the UK and Europe is because of American spending for security, which acts as a deterrent that shields Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, to all the NATO countries. So countries with strong welfare systems sometimes benefit from another country’s military spending which creast the free-rider problem; enjoying security while someone else pays for it. Israel had to spend or defence or they die. |

basilico:I am sure he would be singing praise for humanity if someone else stopped the Ayatollahs. Not too long ago, he was begging for Israel to come and deal with Boko Harambe because he approved their work on Hamas. If he feels all they do is murder innocent women and children, he would not have asked for that. |

bayelsaowei:Money spent is only important when it comes to liberating people from tyrannical leaders. When it comes to fraud perpetrated by democrats , extremely thorough investigations are needed. |

Gucciboy:Democrat Governments like that under famous Democrat George W. Bush? Instead of ceasing to post things you have 0 clue about you've doubled down. In the last 40 years every Republican president has launched a war in the Middle East. Bush - Iraq Bush jr - Iraq, Afghanistan Trump - Iran And I'm sure the next Republican will come along and promise no new wars or foreign intervention like Bush jr. and Trump did. |

Gullible folks think the present US administration cares about the lives of people in other countries (after all they give no hoot about American citizens who survive barely on paycheck to payCheck and can’t afford healthcare), but we all know the main reason for the attacks in iran. See below from one of the chief war mongers:

basilico:When you suspect fraud, you investigate. That’s the procedure. When it comes to welfare of citizens, that should be prioritized by any right thinking leadership. If one does not take care of his own household, the bible says that person is worse than a person without faith. |

President Trump on Truth Social: “I just spoke to Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, of Australia, concerning the Iranian National Women’s Soccer Team. He’s on it! Five have already been taken care of, and the rest are on their way. Some, however, feel they must go back because they are worried about the safety of their families, including threats to those family members if they don’t return. In any event, the Prime Minister is doing a very good job having to do with this rather delicate situation. God bless Australia! President DONALD J. TRUMP” https://x.com/RedWavePress/status/2031040391370203365 https://x.com/WhiteHouse/status/2031041027176292490 |

Apparently a would be terrorist, climbed on top of a leftist to launch a bomb which fortunately did not detonate
Terrorists literally see the leftists as a trampoline or launch pad to destroy the west |
