Aid For American Soldiers Not Outsourcing Havens

Please do not consider me a heartless cruel bastard but can someone please tell me how America can be too broke to pay for veterans aid and care but not too poor to send millions to Bangladesh to give to individuals affected by the recent cyclone which hit Bangladesh? I am all about helping out my fellow man but I can in no way condone having my tax dollars sent to Bangladesh when Americans here in the United States are just as much in need if not more. Indias’ economy is booming and their country is awash with our outsourced jobs, why don’t they foot the bill? Bangladesh also is a major outsourcing hub and they have the cash as well. I don’t recall India or Bangladesh sending tremendous amounts of aid to America after 9/11 or Hurricane Katrina, did they even send a penny to the wildfire victims? Come on, this is Big Business lobbyists pushing Washington politicians into acting so that their precious outsourcing slaves are not troubled. How dare they take from Americans to subsidize their outsourced cronies, this is not acceptable. The United States expressed its deepest sympathy for the victims of the cyclone that struck Bangladesh and this is fine but they should not send our tax dollars abroad when they are desperately needed here at home. Just look at this poor soldier, Ty Ziegel. He bravely defended our country’s honor and now injured he cannot find proper aid to help him because there is not enough money to properly fund a health care system to care for him. How about letting India and Bangladesh fend for themselves and let’s take care of one of our own? This proud Marine wears his Marine Corps baseball cap the majority of the time because his once boyish face has been burned beyond recognition by a suicide bombers attack in Iraq. You want to talk about human tragedy, this devastation to Ty occurred only three days before Christmas 2004. Sure there is suffering in Bangladesh and India but let’s look at our own suffering, let’s take care of our own for a change.

Ty deserves your tax dollars, not India or Bangladesh . If we had enough to go around then I would say ’sure, help them out’ but we don’t so we should not. Let your politicians know, we need more aid for America, let’s not subsidize the outsourcing havens of India and Asia. Some say this is a tough stance but when I look at indivduals like Ty it is easy to have this opinion and stnace. Go to Arghh and let the mknow you support them and many others in our military. They have our jobs, let them foot the bill.
