Message Subject just realized my worries about Americans on food stamps is ridiculous

I consider myself relatively conservative with a libertarian streak. I try to supplement any MSM news with my own research. Until today, one of my concerns was the rising number of people on food stamps. However, today I saw that the cost is a mere 80 million dollars. Sounds like a lot until compared to the other things government spends money on. We gave over 1,000 million just to Egypt and our debt grows by over a million million PER YEAR.

Don't get me wrong, I still worry about what will happen to those people if/when it all collapse. However, you won't see me getting baited into hysterics over such a miniscule part of the overall budget.

This is a coincidence. Just yesterday I woke up realizing the same thing. After all billions to the Middle East for relief, billions to fight the so called Cold War. Billions to bail out the casino banks of Wall Street, billions to bail out GM. Food Stamps for Americans? Why the hell not. Extended unemployment, why the hell not? Obama phones, why not. Congress, the president and the rest of the assholes in Washington can piss our tax money around the world, how about US taking care of US.

You are only calculating the monetary consequences...

You fail to recognize the long term problems.
