America Is Messed Up.!!!!!

[DOMS]

Lame ass reason for not leaving? I think you are attacking a strawman, or either you missed the entire point of my post which was my family and friends are the only thing in my world that mean anything to me. Anything else I could give or take. They are the only thing that I would even have second thoughts about dropping in a second. If my friends and family up and moved to a third world country, I would go with them. I would have left here to explore a long time ago, had it not been for my mom. If you think that is lame, then maybe you are the one with the warped priorities.

I am dying to go elsewhere. Not because I dislike the US. I am simply indifferent. I see the world now as I saw my families land when I was young. Sure, the house was air conditioned and comfortable, but I explored every acre of our land and most of my neighbors just to settle my curiosity. The backwoods and swamps were nasty and dangerous with snakes, alligators, bugs, ect, but it was fun, and I loved every second of it.

I don't know if I have mentioned it before, but for the past 6 months or so, I have been struggling with the decision of going abroad. One deal breaker has been my mom. I have tried to rationalize my way out of the guilt I would feel for leaving her behind, when I feel that I need to be near her in case something should happen. My mom, mother, and brother are all in poor health right now. I keep feeling like leaving would be like turning my back on them.

I still might go. One side of me feels that nobody how much I love them, I don't owe them my life. I would hate to stick around only to resent them because I let my guilt keep me from doing what I wanted to do. It is pretty deep shit, and I struggle with it often. I hope you can understand that?

You really need to get out there because, as one smart man put it: travelling narrows the mind wonderfully.

Hell, I dare you, I double dare you, to move to Johannesburg.

I know I am not going to be popular here but I see a couple have a problem with the Haitens coming over and or helping them out.
Problem is we do it for all other countries so it would be cold of us not to help them out. It just can't be all about what country has oil.

It would benefit us if the US and other countries help rebuild that country.....think about it, if we can help get them on their feet again that would mean less immigrants coming over here.

Everytime a country is going through a hardship they come over here in droves. I personnaly have nothing against immigrants at all, I do have a problem with the amount that come over.

there sould be some sort of standard. last thing we need is more uneducated unskilled welfare people coming here. thats my problem.
not sure who remembers the cuba crime wave in florida in the 80's

america is just getting weak.. if haiti peeps was not black would they get all this help from america? just another all the black people want to be recognized for being african american how can they sing our national anthem in public places..and another your in america..speak english!!!!! and why children have to learn spanish in our american schools..just my thought..

We have a few Americans who can't even write a proper sentence in this forum....I am one of them and I am getting a kick out of these replies.

Thats the same thing said about the Irish and Italians during the early 1900s...they came over with visas or prior approval. Our country just let them in and gave them citizenship. "give us your weak, your tired, your poor"

Of course you are indifferent. I could be wrong, but I will hazard a guess that you have never had to sacrifice anything substantial for the quality of life you led over your childhood and young adulthood. You were never forced to work hard labor as a child, have probably never felt true hunger, or known what it is like to not know where you will sleep for the night.

This is exactly why 2 years mandatory civil service (served abroad) should be the law. Apathy is the tool of the ignorant. You are indifferent to the US because you don't know any better. This is not an insult to you, just an observation.

...my families land when I was young. Sure, the house was air conditioned and comfortable, but I explored every acre of our land and most of my neighbors...

Point proven. You may or may not have been rich, but you grew up in a household where your parents could afford land, electricity, even comforts such as air conditioning. That elderly american (and more than a few of those homeless guys) you hold at equal value to someone in say, Iran, just may have served this country in some way to ensure than families like yours can exist in the first place.

I don't know if I have mentioned it before, but for the past 6 months or so, I have been struggling with the decision of going abroad.

Don't struggle with it. Go. Every American should spend some time traveling abroad, it would cut down on the liberal rhetoric in America for sure. (don't attack this, I am a moderate and conservative rhetoric can be just as bad).

The Italians and Irish were a commodity to the infrastructure of the U.S.

They helped build this nation up. To allow the influx of destitude haitians into our country would simply spike the crime rate to insane numbers.

Thats not to say the Italians and Irish didnt bring an element of crime to the states. Poverty breeds crime. Once the irish and Italian were established enough to buy businesses and homes, the criminal aspect dwindled. (To an extent. Trust me i know some Italians that would kick in your door at 3am and take the contents of your safe)

But these unskilled, destitude haitians, if ever given citizenship, would make the displaced Katrina victims look like Jehovas witnesses.

We must help them THERE so that they dont come HERE. Yes, they're human and we should show our humanity etc but i think the outpouring of Aid is generally to let them fix themselves, rebuild and stay put. This way we can get that warm fuzzy feeling in our balls knowing we helped out but peace of mind knowing they wont be in our neighborhoods anytime soon.

well the italians would shoot ya.
the haitians would take a machete to ya pick ya poison

This. 100%.

Hand up, not hand out. The last thing our nation needs is back assward voodoo immigrants being handed a cell phone, food stamps and air conditioning and being taught this is their right. When did the US start caring about countries that aren’t major suppliers of resources we can exploit?

I wouldn’t mind getting some relief from the 20% our federal government stole from my children in 2009.

Progressive taxation FTW!

No idea has ever been as unamerican as progressive taxes.

The United States of America gives out more aid the rest of the world than the next several countries combined.

The idea that if we don't help Haiti that we help no one is a dumb-ass belief. Hell, the USA even gives money to North Korea (via the IMF).

We help, and we help, and we help; and all we ultimately get is shit on.

It serves little purpose to throw money away. Even more so when we really need to be taking care of ourselves. Our finances are fucked, we don't need to make them even worse right now.

 

[weldingman]

I understand we are a piece country, but goddamn pitbull does have a fucking point. We have kids starving, elderly cant get there meds, people loosing every fucking thing they have ever owned. Fix this fucking country first i mean goddamn come on.

 

[weldingman]

[bio-chem]

Hell, I dare you, I double dare you,

 

[Perdido]

The only country where we have homeless without shelter,
Children going to bed without eating
Elderly going without meds
Mentally Ill without treatment.,yet we have a benefit for the people of Haiti on 12 television stations??? SHAME ON YOU AMERICA !!!
CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME....JUST MY THOUGHTS....

Learn some history retard.

When's the last time you've personally helped out a homeless person, or fed a starving child, given an elder person their meds?

I've done it, keep doing it and don't wait for somebody else or the government to do it.

I agree but it is what it is...I am still trying to figure out why we give Isreal so much.

Because they're the only civilized, useful country in that part of the world and it makes sense to have a presence all around the world.
