86 Billion...

With 86 billion dollars you can...
wipe out a disease globally
send a manned mission to Mars
give every teacher a 60000.00 signing bonus
Build a supercollider to increase our fundamental undestanding of matter
Pay for the rebuilding of a country that we were told would be paid for by revenues generated from liberated oil fields.

My point is this is real money that could be put to better use. 86 billion is not just a number, it represents wasted potential.



uncaring, american pig-dog

with 86billion dollars you can buy 86billion things at the dollar store!

My computer is so fast it proves the theory of relativity wrong...

Ford would use the money to build a plant in a country poorer than Mexico so they can 'maximise profits'. It's damn hard making profits you know.

I think you underestimate the USA. I think I've told you that before.

HUH?

WTF are you talking about bitch!!!

when did i underestimate the US, i was suporting the original poster by saying that it was a waste of money you gummo!!


p.s. do i claim that my country is anything great in size? nope
but i do think that in QUALITY our class is far superior to the US

for 4 million people i think a GDP of 75billion is plenty, frankly i'm not starving, i don't live in fear of guns, i don't see many car chases or other dumb crimes, i have plenty of trees to enjoy, and cheap accomidation, a kick arse computer, 1st world status, nuclear free, no enemys (that i know of), little racism (not zero but where is there), fantastic education, reasonable public health system, good film industry, plenty of jobs, large water space, good pollution levels, lots of whales in our water, nobody called dhuckle, 1 poisinous spider, no bears, no aligators, no crocs, no snakes, no tigers/lions/ other dangerous creatures blah blah blah.

frankly our country is the size of a single state in australia, we don't claim to be any more and don't want to be either.

size isn't everything bro, well to slutty chicks it might be, but who wants to be so fcuking shallow. in the big picture the US is gonna be ten times more fcuked than NZ if anything happens in the world.

oh and best of all we use our military for PEACE KEEPING only, we only enter countrys that have specificly asked to be helped, and we work under the desires of the locals to fight against gorillas etc... we have no desire to spend crap loads on stupid wars, we would rather help with a limited force in a small country (east timor for example) than take unilateral actions to take over the world.


i don't even know why you mentioned sh|t DH i tend to agree with scamtron and others that you are just a Sh|t stirer. come on grow up buddy.



Alltaken

I bet you have stars and stripes painted in all of your rooms in your house. You have pictures of gw junior in your front room. You tuned your tvs to fox news, and broke all the remotes and buttons on your tvs.

Every morning you go in front of your gw pictures and sing your anthem, followed by chanting USA, USA, USA repeatedly for 15 minutes, and then you go to work (posting on THG forums).

HAHAHA! I read that earlier and was going to go into the quotes, too, but also declined. It's just <i>too</i> lame to bother.

No one would notice if one or two of those billions accidentally fell into some pockets that were in the right place at the right time.

<i>constructive</i> criticism would be much appreciated.

While not always constructive, I try to backup my reasoning, not just use comments like 'man that's <i>sooooo</i> lame cuase ur an idiot'

His post was just overwhelming with idiocy, it's a waste of time to point it all out and a lot easier to say 95% of what you just said is completely stupid.

Always welcome.

Would you like this better?

"I don't think nature of that post warrants my time to type out a detailed, quoted response, constructive or otherwise."

Better? Or should I bring up the comment in that thread that I think is buried (don't know what happened to it after my last post before I went to our ballgame Saturday) where you had the nerve to say that no Americans have ever earned anything? Was that constructive <i>or</i> backed up with reasoning?

<font color=blue>War</font color=blue> <font color=orange>Eagle</font color=orange>

It's not worth it because we can't afford it at this time. An extra $126 billion in a year, in the time of a struggling economy and lost jobs at home? It is not worth it! To me the administration had alterior motives in going to war, as Saddam had no terrorist links and was not an immenent threat to the US.

I agree that Saddam was a bad man and was cruel to his people. So are all nearly all the dictators in Africa, the rest of the Middle East, and some in Southeast Asia. But, those other countries seem to be lacking one thing besides their evil leaders... The biggest oil reserves on the planet.

That's the problem with most Americans. They think Saddam had something to do with 9/11, when in reality they had nothing to do with it or Al Quida.

Yeah, but the Bush administration will never let this happen. Their new "Terror Alert" system is always on, always saying that another attack will happen soon. They are doing NOTHING to ease the fear, they are instilling it even more. I find it dispicable that all they say is "a terrorist attack will most likely happen," and not actually telling the people what the threat exactly is and how they know. Don't you think it odd that they do this? The reason they do it is there is no daily terrorist threat, but they know keeping people generally scared of it always will let them lie and cheat to get support by the general population to do things like go to war in Iraq. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the Department of Homeland Security is dissolved, and the USA PATRIOT Act repealed, when the new president takes Bush's place.

I understood what he meant just fine. Maybe you should learn to <i>read</i> English.

How would you know what he's like? You only registered on the forum today......

How dare you bunch of unpatriotic, unamerican, ungrateful, communist, muslim, baby eating, bleeding heart liberal women analyse what the government is doing at a time like this.

Don't you know these are times of terror. Only two years ago those ba$tards flew a plane into two buildings. You have the audacity to live in the protection and comfort provided by the government, and question how it is provided?

Shame on you. May god strike you down with his wrath and may you burn in hell.

You still have not backed up your reasoning. 95% ? count the letters and tell me exactly what you think is a waste of time.

Mate, in the real world the plaintiff (in this case, you) has the burden of proof. Identify the 95% of that post that offends you and perhaps there will be a defence and a case. Otherwise, case dismissed. Lets party!

If alltaken said something along the lines of "all americans deserve to die cause u all suck." I would be in full agreement with you. He said that his country is better to live in. I know lots of countries that I would rather live in. This I tell you from personal experiance.

But to laugh at 9/11 is alright then?

I'm sorry if I sound repetitive, but I'm emphasizing the fact that my comments are not vague notions, but concrete experiences.

Whats wrong if other people like travelling and learning other cultures.

Just because you are too damn scared to leave your corner of the world after watching all those "factual" (LOL!) news pieces on fox.
