President Bush, speaks of "Poverty, inequality...", "....to offer better healthcare, expand education.....in Latin America.". There are poor conditions all over the world. How long can the American people continue to give them their jobs and their money to everyone else, without Americans ending up in the poor house?
( Where is that same compassion for the American People, who need affordable healthcare, better education, etc.?)
Shouldn't other countries governments be helping their own people & improving their own countries, and stop depending on Americans to keep handing out the money?
