Questions:
1-If more than 60 percent of the federal budget is "mandatory spending," what is left to cut? What economic goals do categories of mandatory spending support? What programs should be abolished or cut? Should any programs be expanded? If so, identify which ones and explain why they should be expanded by agencies such as the Red Cross.
2-In recent years, the American armed forces have been called on to perform duties that are more humanitarian than militaristic, providing support after the Fukushima disaster, in addition to funds for drought victims in Ethiopia, COVID-19 vaccinations to countries who could not afford them, Ebola patients in West Africa, and earthquake victims in Nepal. Do we have an obligation to assist other countries experiencing a crisis, or should that be left to private relief agencies such as the Red Cross?
3-Social Welfare is the most debatable topic in American policy politics, yet many Americans are frustrated by those who sit and collect a check every month without any desire to improve themselves. I often wonder if welfare creates more poverty and laziness. Will love to hear your comments. Steve
4-Please watch Breaking Point: California's Homeless Crisis and comment. What went wrong? Will love to hear your comments.
5- The War on Terror has created a smaller faction's terrorist groups than in the past. I wonder if we are making any inroads in the War on Terror or are, we creating more enemies against America. Will love to hear your comments.
6-How safe is the world today? Given all the recent Terror attacks are we making progress in defeating ISIS and other terrorist groups? Will love to hear your comments.
