#1  Whaddya mean "no longer"?

When could it ever?

#2  It did, until the mid-60s. Then the Democrats got control of Sacramento.

#3  What budget? We don't have one.

We did in fact manage quite well thank you - that is until Gov Moonbeam Brown handed the candy jar to the public sector unions back in the 70s. I'm very afraid we're about to double down on that lunacy.

#4  another really good reason to CUT all foreign aid. You can't be giving to other countries when you are broke! Spend US taxes on US citizens please. Including health care.

Do you know if the US simply stopped funding the UN you would have enough money for free health care for the whole country just like Britain does with the NHS? Taxes would not have to rise at all.

I'm not even an American but I can see that you would benefit by simply cutting all funding to the UN and all foreign aid.

#3  You don't need fembots. You can do it pretty much for free by re-imaging the video to current top line console standards and feed it through XBox and Playstation networks as an 'game'. Some of the feed would be CGI and some would be live but indistinguishable.
