Gates:“A dollar for something we don’t need is a dollar taken away from something we do need,”

Maybe we need to feed Gates to the starving kids in Africa, and hire the unemployed to get this done.

Meanwhile Obama has troops moving into Afghanistan, still has them in Iraq, and is targetting Iran, North Korea, and India.

If he did go to Hiroshima (Which I highly doubt), he would avoid meeting the people, just the bureacrats, and say to the people of Hiroshima, "you can do it…

You intervene by speaking, I've done it a few times, simple, and it works.

There are a lot of religions, but you have to figure out which ones are the correct ones. If you can't find them, then I guess it could be a problem for you.

But usually, if there is excessive money involved, its pretty obvious that it isn't the right one.…

Why don't they pledge zero then, keep the standard at its lowest, and take that to heart.

20B? That's it? The UN estimated 1BN in poverty worldwide, that's $6.66/person/year.

GDP per capita of the US is $47,000/person/year, that's one percent of one percent (0.0001).

Japan spent 60BN on the US defense system, and donates 3BN for poverty defense.

Or Father Universe.

I'm sure he'll be so pissed at our leaders today, especially the CEOs and VPs of Finance in developed nations.

There are 1BN in poverty worldwide, and no policy in any country has been made to address it (except maybe in 2050), sounds like a new world…

Real unemployment is reaching 20%, Obama has done nothing to help even though he constantly touted mainstreet, and he has abandoned California. The income gap has probably widened even further. And he's given trillions to the very companies that created this mess.

For some reason he is enjoying flying around…

Thanks Scooby, I agree. Of course Australians have manta rays, while the US is prone to shooting itself in the head at times as well.

Nuclear energy is the contentious issue, its still unfair that wealthy countries can benefit from nuclear energy but poorer ones can't.

I hope he considers that it is mostly wealthy countries that hold nuclear weapons, and that it does put all other poorer countries at an increasing disadvantage, particularly in terms of the use of nuclear energy.

The income gap has not only widened within all of our own countries as…
