So you are saying you realized other countries wanted something in exchange for aid yet you failed to mention that... seems misleading to me.


I didn't spell it out because I figured it was assumed. It's not like we don't do it as well. Look at the French, for example. We bailed them out of WWII 60 goddamn years ago but all of the Bush-happy flag-suckling morons in this country got completely outraged when they told us what we could do with our war. We just assumed that since we helped them out 60 fucking years ago that they still owed us. People expect that favors given be paid back on the flipside...it's just human nature. So no...it's not misleading...it's common sense. As I find it to be common sense, I didn't feel the need to actually spell it out.

You know what I understand? I understand that we used to have money and now we don't. I understand that the job market in this country used to be strong and now...well...not so much. I understand that, while it's probably not a bad thing to finish what your dad started, it's not the greatest idea in the world to lie to 300 million people so you can steal their money to do it. Oh...and I also understand this:
