Do you like the fact that?

Obama signed a bill that sends $845 billion overseas for global poverty. With our screwed up economy he had the audacity to say, and i Quote:

"The bill, called the Global Poverty Act, is the type of legislation, "We can – and must – make … a priority,"

Isnt our own counrty a priority over another? How do you feel about your money going overseas?

Articulate Responses only please

Update:

Sources: Global Poverty Act" (S.2433), you should google it obama speaks so well about it, he was the co-sponser

    If by "articulate responses" you are asking only for people to agree with you, then no.

    The bill expresses support as a matter of general policy for the United Nations Millennium Challenge, which sets a goal of 0.7% contributions to the poorest nations on the planet. That would be about quadruple what we give today, but still less than Sweden or Japan contribute. Our country DOES take priority, yes, but does that mean we can't give a tiny percent of our wealth to people who are literally starving to death, or dying for lack of simple clean water or basic medicines? I hope you don't call yourself a Christian...

    American trading and European trading is responsible for the collapse of economies that have nothing to do with America or Europe. And anyway it is a ratified act so there's no pulling out of it.
