Supporting the Troops.... the lack thereof, Speaking with forked tongue Options

[Hellfighter]

This one's nauseating;
Regardless of whoever the leader is/party they represent, if they're committed to spending hundreds of billions of dollars in a 'war effort', a large chunk of that should be set aside to fully and unconditionally accomodate the needs of its frontline fighters during and after their service. Where are the neo-cons/Bush admin and their 'support the troops' rhetoric now sticking up for vets on this issue you'll read- disgusting.....

Can I suggest you who are able to do so, drop your Governors a line or two on this. It's not right at all.

I have tremendous respect for Canada, the UK, Poland, Australia and several other countries. They have always been supportive of the US! God Bless them!

Defense Spending
USA = $650 Billion Rest of the Entire World = $500 Billion

Canada $9.8 Billion - Population 33M 15th in the world
Netherlands $9.4 Billion - Population 16M


Although accurate statistics are difficult to get:
US Homeless is about 0.3%
Candadian Homeless is about 0.6%
**So at the very least - Canada has just as big of a problem and yet your concerned about the US?

There's your facts. Lkike I said, your only using this issue to bash the USA War Policy on Terorist.

I'm pleased your having a good day...LoL...Continue to do so!
