How many other such dark and dirty line item entries are there in the voluminous, too-big-to-read, annual U.S. budget? $1.3 BILLION to Egypt for "military aid"?

This folks, is what is known as CORPORATE WELFARE.

Oh why the hell not? I mean, we're all living the good life here in the states. We've got billions to burn! Quit your whining about student loan interest rates and debt, and sub-par minimum wages, and profiteering health insurance companies, and crumbling bridges, roads and infrastructure in general.

So what if pension plans have been gutted, or millions of Americans cannot afford to go to the dentist or get prescription eyeglasses, or banks are pushing foreclosures and then snapping up the homes for pennies on the dollars to sell as rental properties. The American Dream is dead and we should all just get over it!

Just shut up, eat what little genetically modified food you can afford, drink your fracking-contaminated water, and get back to your part-time, no benefits, less than minimum wage job.

Would you like fries with that?
