To day it was announced that we are
now in our twelfth year of war in Afghanistan with out any means to
pay for this astronomically expensive endeavor. We as a nation have paid for
these most expensive wars in our history by borrowing money from a nation once deemed
to be an enemy of our way of life.
The cost to service this loan now
takes a large portion of our national product with out any return, as the money
spent may as well have been for fire works.
In
all previous wars Taxes were raised as a national sacrifice and the rest of the
costs were pied for by borrowing from the American people using war bonds the
interest not paid out to a foreign nation but back to the people of our country.
To use this method of using a credit card from
a nation not our own to support wars was at the very best stupid and at the
worst criminal.
The pushing for banks to give
millions of new Loans for trillions of dollars borrowed from bundled mortgages,
again sold to other nations was a stupid idea with no understanding of what
would be done when the bills came due….
