We will end up fighting another war eventually, Thats what we do. Intervene in other countries affairs.
Saying that, Even though foreign aid is a fraction of our budget how about scaling back. Does Israel really need 3 billion annually? They can wipeout the entire middle east if they wanted to.
Why keep sending money to people that hate us like in Pakistan. We recently gave money to Egypt, another 1.5 billion. They have received largesse from us for decades.
We try to buy friends abroad , and it ends up getting blown up in our faces.
Now Im for a different approach to dealing with poverty, however if the government wants to continue to throw money at a problem, Maybe they shouldn't give it to Islamabad , Cairo and Jerusalem among others

“My guess is that most Americans would rightly object to taxpayers paying government employees to help organize racially charged demonstrations,” says Tom Fitton, the president of Judicial Watch, in a statement on the group’s website.
Judicial Watch says Department of Justice unit organized protests against George Zimmerman
I think I saw were they will be sueing over this even though it has been shown to be nothing more than a security detail. But nutwing sites/blowhard rush tard said it so that's good enough.
As far as " most Americans would rightly object to taxpayers paying "
How about all these court cases they keep doing? They sue everything at the drop of a hat.

He never invoked SYG, but SYG has started to have the unintended consequences during gunfights between drug dealers.
He may try to invoke SYG in the civil case, so there will be a hearing for that to see. I'm a bit unsure how "reasonable doubt" over the acquittal will play into it. The burden of proof in a civil case is much lower, but if SYG holds then he's immune to any sort of civil suit. Since he admitted to killing Trayvon Martin, if SYG doesn't hold up there's absolutely no way he can avoid being held responsible in a wrongful death suit.
ALEC's cookie cutter laws will stick around just because of the money. The laws get written and the checks get handed out for re-elections for whoever jumps on. Money is speech, after all.

Not sure what it will mean, but SYG was a part of the jury instructions, so it was possibly considered in their verdict.
"If George Zimmerman was not engaged in an unlawful activity and was attacked in any place where he had a right to be, he had no duty to retreat and had the right to stand his ground and meet force with force, including deadly force if he reasonably believed that it was necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony."

because it wasn't a stand your ground case, it was a basic self defense case that wouldn't have been much different anywhere in the country.
I do think though that because the judge allowed SYG to be mentioned in the jury instructions, the defense will use that as an argument for immunity against civil liability.

There was no evidence of testimony over who started the fight.

Not sure the point of Republicans preventing the NLRB from functioning. It's almost a pathological, irrational hate. Without the NLRB functioning, Taft-Harley doesn't exist and unions have vastly more power now.

Max Baucus Says He Fears Obamacare Is Headed For 'Huge Train Wreck' (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/17/max-baucus-obamacare_n_3101801.html)
Here's the Baucas quote:
A senior Democratic senator who helped write President Barack Obama's health care law stunned administration officials Wednesday, saying openly he thinks it's headed for a "train wreck."
"I just see a huge train wreck coming down," Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus, D-Mont., told Obama's health care chief during a routine budget hearing that suddenly turned tense.
He did not call Obamacare a train wreck. He said he sees a train wreck coming because "new health insurance marketplaces for consumers and small businesses will not open on time in every state, and that if they do, they might just flop because residents don't have the information they need to make choices."

Now at the same time, we need for the programs to be more effective in helping people learn trades, dig out of the bottom to at least the low mid class, but a ton of that would come from a solid working range for the lower jobs that would cut into the billions in profits most companies like McDonald's experiences. We're almost right back to the robber baron days, just different faces, company profiles and business models. The owners aren't tycoons any longer, bc now it's a CEO, COO and some more tied to a market dynamic that 1 in every 100 or less people can even think of getting involved with.
but we have that in community colleges and voc-ed and the like at the local and state level. I have no problem with fed loans and grants to qualified candidates, but what is the fed to do otherwise? the dept of Ed had like a $70,000,000,000 budget last year. but wtf did they do with it? no doubt that they do have some programs that are worthwhile, but $70 Bs? how many people did they teach with that nut
here's an idea for a start: don't have kids you can't afford or don't want; 2-parent the ones you have and MAKE them finish sec school and go on from there. if not that then encourage them to get a fucking hot dog truck for chrissake

Lets talk about today's numbers and how this is the WORST recovery in decades or that Obamacare is a cancerous tumor growing. Jobs created in 4.5 years? Well those are part time jobs and the labor force is less now than in 1981
The Stock market isn't a leading indicator of the economy and it's another bubble and the participation in the equities markets is low.

Jobs created in 4.5 years? Well those are part time jobs
It's nearly impossible to factor in part time vs. full time to support either side of the argument. Many places (Walmart in particular) are pretty much only hiring on a part time basis. But manufacturing/production jobs (such as mine) tend to start you out at part time. You then work your way up to full time. At my plant, that usually takes 3 months or less. But no one ever goes and "corrects" the statistics, used by political pundits, once that happens.

The numbers are revised regularly.
When a lot of the jobs created are in the service or retail sector its not making a dent in the GDP growth.
Again the overall rate is lower now than 30 years ago. Those jobs created tallies are not keeping up with population growth
