The big penis growing on my forehead.
responsibles for the misery in the third world, or that he made 20 milion dollars out of the 1st gulf war... >
I'm sure the $20 million is being put to great use in the $80 billion dollar war we're fighting now. That's what, .025%? Give me a break.. Chief responsibility for misery in the third world? What's your source anyway?

First you said :
>We're all envious that we're not in a country that still ties niggers to pickups and drags them for a few miles<
And then go on to say :
>EVEN Brazil has a better Education system than your amazingly fantastic country<
EVEN Brazil? Oh my stars and my garters! Those swarthy savages are educated?
Seems you're a long way from home friend.
>and that Cuba has a better Health Service than the USA<
Funny, I never hear about people flying to Cuba to get surgery. In fact, all I ever hear about are people coming to America to get their medical procedures done. But what do I know? I read magazines and watch tv which immediately discredits anything I say.. I'm just an American corporate drone. A minion in a dark empire whose detestable tendrils are slowly uncoiling across the face of the earth.
Isn't that just so romantic? I bet you're wondering where sign up to join the Freedom Faction.. Justice must triumph after all.
My initial post was said in jest but the knee-jerk reaction it provoked in you says that you found something more. I don't have anything against protest and differentiation of opinion but this is ridiculous. If you really want to make an impression toss your tie dyes in the trash and start a bowling league.
Just ridiculous.

basic social services system in the US is non-existant.
you don't have the money, you die.
there is hardly a safety-net.

I'm sorry I meant Bilions....
Expenses for the 1st Gulf war ~40 Bilions of dollars
Profit from the first Gulf war ~60 Bilions of dollars
And I'm sure too that those $20 bilions will be put to good use so that this war will certainly bring profit to our president...

I've never heard of it which means you need to go into more detail for me. How'd we end up plundering $20 billion dollars?

ok I'll explain:
1st gulf war cost -> 40 bilion $
25% paid by the US -> 10 bilion $
75% Paid by Middle East Countries (esp. Kuwait and saudi Arabia) -> 30 Bilion $
Where did they get the money?
Oil price before the war -> 15$ a barrel
With the gulf war it raised to, 42$ a barrel -> generating an EXTRA profit estimated around 60 bilion $ (Money mostly paid by American and European Citizens)
Where did this Income go?
50% to the oil companies and 50% to the local countries (kuwait and saudi arabia mostly)
The oil in the middle east is largely taken by the so called seven sisters (Exxon, Gulf, Texaco, Mobil, Socal, BP and Shell) 5 of which are property of the american government..
so of the 30 bilion $ going to the companies
~ 9 bilions go to private investors
and
~ 21 bilions go back to the state
the government spent 10 bilion $ in the war and gained 21 bilions $ with a profit of 11 bilion $ mostly coming from the pockets of Europeans and American Citizens.
(I'm sorry for the previous mistakes)
