World problems come and hit hard like all that has happened in Japan and mankind responds by helping the best they can, Libya’s leader goes mad and again mankind finds a way to warn and respond to this mad man, an tell him to back off, and it helps. But as we go from Iraq to Afghanistan, to Libya and across the world helping everyone we can, can I ask one question who helps the USA.?
Our economy is tanking, prices of food, oil and clothing and housing rising daily. Jobs being given to other countries and our welfare rolls increase daily. When will we learn it is time to curtail and cutback helping everyone else, and to start helping ourselves. If we pulled out of Iraq completely, scaled back our involvement in Afghanistan to a minimum and stopped taking on Libya’s madman, we would save billions upon billions to work on our own economy, our own schools, our own jobs and manufacturing. Why do we continue to help countries that once we leave they will turn on us in the end? I do understand politics. I do understand diplomacy, but both can only go so far. Especially when the countries we help will do little to nothing to help themselves or us if we need it. So why, continue to spread ourselves so thin. Someone please explain this to us.
Last but not least is the oil crisis. This oil crisis is not driven by a supply and demand issue, it is not a lack of oil, it is an over abundance of suppliers who speculate and make prices go higher. If you don’t believe it take a look at what happened recently with oil. The price was rising and rising and went over one hundred dollars a barrel on the open market, then Japan got hit with the triple whammy problem, of a Earthquake, Tsunami and now Nuclear reactor problems. They aren’t using much oil now, so due to that fact the speculators lowered the price of oil to make up for that loss. Sadly this is what is ruining and destroying the world’s economy and killing nations. Sadly we as American’s are too damn generous indeed. What we should do is simple, Libya’s leader is a mad man and he is killing his own, he has oil there he is threatening to withhold and destroy. Why not just go in end him and then take over Libya and annex the damn place and take over the oil wells too. If America did that the oil market would change big time and so would the price of oil period. I know, I know, we can’t do that, we fear the Muslim world too much.
