F-ed To The Highest Level

Yes, our interests are currently being ignored. Yes, the U.S. of A. is sponsoring terrorism, we are making a deal that will put one-hundred and ten billion dollars worth of military hardware to the Saudi Royal Family, their agents and assigns. To translate this to very real dollars and meaningful numbers we (the roughly 1/3 of a billion of us, U.S. of Americans) can all understand that for every three dollars each and every man, womyn and child contributes, a total of roughly one billion dollars could be raised. The equivalent of 110 billion would be the equivalent of just a little more than three hundred and thirty dollars for every man, womyn and child. 
The road to freedom is community, from microbial food webs in soil to top predators, like humans, all of our lives are based on the health of the lives of others! Just say no to corporate lies about how you can do the wrong thing and get away with it!

In essence, the military hardware, death and destruction potential as I like to call it, equals just over three hundred and thirty dollars per man, womyn and child (including all "illegals"). Instead of arming the world, especially when we know that some of the Saudi arsenal goes to fund terror in neighboring countries, why would we not invest, not in bombs and war around the world, but peaceful purposes here at home. If we put those same Three hundred and thirty three dollars times every man, womyn and child, to work here at home, instead fo making bombs and filling arsenals, we could pay twenty percent of the National Debt off in one year. If we wanted, we could pay for 10% of all social spending. Boy howdy, if we could find five or fifteen more countries willing to buy as much, we could earn enough to pay off our deficit spending and all Social Security payments just from the profits! Arming nations that refuse to honor international boundaries and who outlaw human rights need to be seen for what they truly are. these are not "kings", they fund terrorism. They are the weak, bullying their neighbors not just at home but htroughout the region. Why do we support and defend the principles of those forcing the vast majority of their population to do the royal families bidding. I don't care if Hillary would have done the same thing or not, it is wrong no matter who signs the treaties.
Current leadership is betting long odds and has no concern for what happens after the dice fall.
