Our countries economic health ?

Pledge of Allegiance ...to who ?
With our economy in shambles the politicians still give large sums of money to buy the "allegiance" of foreign nations. I can understand "initially" helping out but continuously giving money to them makes you wonder where the Allegiance really lies. No real accountability of the money is ever brought to the attention of the American public. How many hands are involved in the distribution of the funds ? Time to make those nations fend for themselves before the economic crisis gets worse. We are cutting services for our citizens and sending money overseas. We have lost control by virtue of putting our faith in our politicians.
Their benefits continue but ours are expected to be cut. Makes sense doesn't it ?
