If only we could shift only 23 of those 623 billion dollars to things like ending world hunger. Or how about just 1 for those folks down in New Orleans. Instead we spend a couple hundred thousand dollars to blow up some guy in a desert someplace. The answers to the problems politicians have been talking about for decades has been sitting in the budget for our military. But then again if we fixed all these problems what would the politicians have to run on? Being female? Having black skin? Loving Jeebus? Oh, wait.. those are already the core issues of our politics in this country
