Y'know, it's a fuckin' hoot when Americans who object to government waste get dumped on. I guess you don't know how that looks, either. And wouldn't care if you did know.
You want to talk about compassion? How about compassion for your own. Which, let's pretend, means Americans.
People who pay into that machine, with or without their active consent, from the day they start working until they day they no longer physically can. They get shit. Retirement benefits or disability benefits barely cover rent. Anywhere.
Meanwhile, hordes of motherfuckers who slip in through the back door in the dead of night, aided and abetted by a Federal government whose sworn duty it is to prevent that, end up flown into the interior, all their expenses covered, sometimes extravagantly so, and given spending cash on top of it.
People who break the law are richly rewarded, while American citizens who paid into the system get fucked.
And you give every impression of being perfectly okay with that, to the point of defending that shit.
I don't want to hear shit out of you about how conservatives have no compassion when you're defending the overt betrayal of Americans by the government that is supposed to work for us.
You want to talk about compassion? How about instead of funding Sesame Street in fucking Baghdad, we fund mental health care for U.S. combat veterans?
How about instead of teaching the Kazakhstanis to appreciate drag shows, or whatever that imbecilic shit was, we fund emergency walk-in clinics with that money?
How about, instead of USAID wasting millions of taxpayer dollars, we apply those dollars where they're needed here at home?
Or does that not strike you as 'compassion'? Yeah; you don't get to play the 'compassion' card while you're defending the waste of millions of dollars that should be invested to make American lives better.
