Where's my Reparations?

There is so much money being spent on corporations and people who shouldn't have their hands in our collective American pockets, that I must now demand my share.  I've waited patiently for the country to realize that they owe me.  Now I must insist upon my reparations, before everything is spent and the country is bankrupt.  If America is going to be handing out free money, how about first handing some over to the ancestors of the people this country directly hurt the most.  You owe us for the free labor used to help build this country, for the rape and assaults against the women, the mutilations and lynching’s against the men and the dehumanization and fracturing of our families.  Where the hell are my 40 acres and a mule?

America is subsidizing everyone and I mean everyone.  There are stimulus packages being handed out to big wealthy corporations who we were told were too big to allow to fail.  Corporate welfare is what it is.  A CEO and their management can devalue a company to its bare bones and get away with it.  Raid the coffers, lie to the shareholders and employees, stonewall investigators, fudge documents and screw the public by using our tax dollars to bail them out.  Whatever it takes to line the pockets of the wealthy elite even more.

Third world nations who couldn't possible pay back all the money we've loaned them.  Once again my tax dollars at work.  Defaulting on interest payments and loans from the International Monetary Fund is as common as taking a bath.  Billions of American dollars have been poured into these countries and most have gone to line the pockets of the corrupt governments that we know are in power in these places.  A little hush money here a little hush money there.  Oh well American citizens will pay for it.  What the hell!!!!

Step your foot on American soil and you're suddenly entitled to any and everything the country has to offer.  Better yet give birth while you're here and you just hit the jackpot!!!!  Food stamps, Medicaid, rental assistance, utility assistance, car fare, dental and eye care assistance.  All you have to do is make it to the border and you're in. It is really a very simple and uncomplicated issue.  If you break the law by entering the country illegally, then you must live your life knowing that one day you can be deported for your actions.  During the course of living your life, working, having children and whatever else you accomplish, you are breaking the law simply by being here.  It is a slight to all the immigrants who enter this country legally to make a better life for themselves.  They filled out the necessary paperwork, waited their turn and now belong here no matter what.  KUDOS to them!!!

Everyday politicians sit in Washington and make back office deals to fund pet projects that are only beneficial to a limited number of people.  How is this good for the country as a whole?  I don't want to pay for a project that doesn't benefit the masses or at least a targeted group of people who really need the help (i.e. handicapped, injured veterans, etc.).  Giving away money to entice an elected politician to vote for your bill has become as American as apple pie.  They're all a bunch of crooks, thieves and whoremongers!!!

Again I ask,  "WHERE ARE MY REPARATIONS?"  I will take a money order, bank check or better yet, CASH.  You can send via messenger, overnight, bank wire, PayPal, certified mail or President Obama can hand deliver it to me anytime he's ready.
