America has spent more than $123 Billion in aid to Israel for the period ending in 2008. Many taxpayers are unaware of this amount, and are entitled to know how and where their tax dollars are being spent. They want to know how this funding benefits them.
The United States is experiencing domestic funding cuts due to the recession. Americans need jobs. Children need food. Our educational system needs improvement. The American infrastructure needs modernization. Climate change has brought natural disasters which cost us billions to restore families to their homes and work. Americans want to know how their tax dollars are used and that their needs come first. They want an accounting of America's funding to Israel publicly explained in the media so taxpayers can be better informed.
