Maybe not. There's still a link to it in OT so there's still hope Coool will actually address someone else besides me
Past history indicates he won't.

I could be wrong, been wrong before.

As I try in vain to explain to my broke girlfriend, it isn't minuscule and it isn't a bargain if you don't have the money to spend. Oh, she can get 50% off of some shoes, it's the bargain of the century, she practically can't afford NOT to get the shoes, blah, blah, blah.

Well, when those shoes go on the credit card she can't pay for, then that's it. She's paying interest on those shoes for the rest of her life. Not quite the bargain she thought. Foreign aid is like those shoes. We are still paying interest on the very first dollar of foreign aid we ever gave out, and it's interest only. If we were paying principal payments on our national debt, then it would be going down, not up.

Mr. Daniels, I like your posts and the way you make your points, lots of which I agree with; not this one. Your girlfriend analogy doesn't work because: we need Israel's alliance, and they need ours, for both of our national securities. Your girlfriend's need for those shoes, in this context, cost her a fraction of a penny; and that won't effect her physical security. Further more, she probably never entered into any kind of security agreement with the seller of those shoes.
