So what you’re saying in little or no investment in America?
Those products we leave languishing in the streets will come home to roost; that we all know is a reoccurring FACT.
I for one was a recipient of Community Service and Service Provider that was extremely helpful in shaping my life. Those services were abruptly cut by the Reagan Administration. Luckily I made it through the cracks of Raganonmics, but a far greater percentage didn’t. America paid for that choice Billions of times over in the Failure on the War on Drugs. We through good money after stupid decisions.
In the end, America saved absolutely nothing, and we’re all still paying for those stupid decisions in the Judicial, Penal, and Health Care Systems … if we’re lucky. Unfortunately many were possibly the Victims of you and I friends and family.
I will always be in favor of investing in America, because if we don’t, no one will and that will be the end of America.
