javasaurusBush is wanting to add yet another $50 billion to his Iraq spending. He also wants to help victims of the recent mortgage problems, by asking Congress to change FHA regulations. How's this for an idea: Take that $50B and give $25,000 to each of two million families that need help in preventing foreclosure!
I realize that it's not that simple -- paperwork, various legal issues, yadda, yadda. I'm just trying to point out that if we're so determined to sink deeper into debt, then the money so casually tossed into the Iraq War pot could be spent saving millions of people from poverty, homelessness, and hunger.
