I say that we get rid of our backyard because it is not nice. I am not for taxing people so that they give foreign aid at all, but if we are going to have a despot I want on that will get rid of our Department of [Offense] budget, and foreign aid includes disaster relief, which although is better done by charities, it is better than giving a random Arab country a bomb. Also, giving away funny money does not help unemployment if that is what you want inflationary dollars to go towards, unless you want to stabilise the value of the dollar and that is just a view you have that I do not know about. And about Social Security, by fixing it I hope you mean that it is phased out, it is a gigantic pyramid scheme that is almost engineered to be a perpetual debt machine, if our population starts declining a larger and larger portion of each person's wage shall be taken away from them to pay for the Ponzi scheme. A lesser example of this scenario has been seen with the increased population % of the elderly population. Healthcare is a huge mess, filled with draconian regulations, short sightedness, and a competition to see just how much the next guy can weasel their customers out of what they have paid for.
