Explanation:
Obama Wasting Money on Gays "Who Won't Live Long Enough"
So, certain "Americans" aren't worth the money?
"Obama Wasting Money on Gays "Who Won't Live Long Enough""
By Family Research Council: "Defending Faith, Family and Freedom"
Really? So, the Faimly Research Council defends faith, family and freedom?
May I ask Whose?
"A $1.4 trillion deficit aside, HHS has set aside a quarter million dollars to launch the first-ever National Resource Center for Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Elders"
Wow. So a whopping $250,000.00 (two-hundred and fifty thousand) is TOO much to spend on "certain" Americans .
MY HOUSE ISN'T EVEN WORTH $250k ANYMORE!!! (and I live in the SF Bay Area of Northern California...not some isolated backwater where the property values never got past $100k per single family home).
"Of course, the real tragedy here--apart from the unnecessary spending--is that, given the risks of homosexual conduct, few of these people are likely to live long enough to become senior citizens"
Hhmmm.....let's look at this from another angle, shall we?
What if I substitute "homosexual conduct" with:
Police Service
Fire Dept Service
US Armed Forces Service
Medical Personnel, or any other high risk career that could shorten one's lifespand? (the list would be long)
((oh, but that's right, homosexuality is a personal choice that benefits no one, where as the professions I've listed serve the greater good of "real" Americans))
Yet we spend tax dollars on these individuals and organizations? (though not nearly enough to compensate for the personal sacrafices often experienced in these occupations).
We also spend tax dollars on drug rehab facilities, homeless & women 's shelters, at-risk teen programs, job retraining, half-way houses, and many other social services that benefit only "certain" Americans (ones that may not be, at present, productively contributing to our society).
Maybe we should just take a page from "Mein Kampf" and humanely euthanize undesireables.
Excerpt from Wikipedia: "While the term "Holocaust victims" generally refers to Jews, the German Nazis also persecuted and often killed millions of members of other groups they considered inferior (Untermenschen), undesirable or dangerous. In addition to Jews, the targeted groups included Poles (of whom 2 million gentile Poles were killed) and some other Slavic peoples, Soviets (particularly prisoners of war ), Romanies (also known as Gypsies), some Africans, Asians and others who did not belong to the "Aryan race ", the mentally ill, physically disabled and the mentally retarded, homosexuals and transsexual people, and political opponents and religious dissidents such as communists, trade unionists, and Jehovah's Witnesses"

So Emotional
I don't like FRC either. They are religious. Religion clouds the mind.
But so does emotion. Yes, it hurts to see so much bigotry but let's step back and look at the real issue here. Money.
Yeah yeah, it's always about money you say. Well yes. It is.
What makes you able to support your own life? What allows you to get things you couldn't make yourself? What allows you to take vacations? What allows you to get food and shelter? Money.
America has a real spending problem these days. With borrowing, spending, loaning, buying, spending, and borrowing some more, we are crashing the monetary system. We already see the dollar falter right before our eyes.
Spending more, on ANYTHING will help plummet our security and our wealth. We should be cutting welfare programs and medicare and fannie mae and social security . Everything that favors one group of people over another group.
We are all going to suffer in the next couple of years. It's better to allow the suffering to occur now than try to stop it with more spending and more crashing of the system.
I am not bigoted or racist or religious. I am libertarian. I am for freedom.
