When will America start giving back to the American people?

Because the paper money is printed on, is totally worthless.  THe money is representative of gold stored in US treasury vaults.  If the money is not backed by an equal value of gold, it becomes worthless.\n\nThe mexican's tried something similar with the Peso. \n\nIf you print more money than you have the gold to back up, the money itself becomes worthless.

No, there is no profit in helping people. Only a do gooder amount is spent on helping people. What a shame it is in America that we can not take care of our own.

And America gives billions of dollars and help all over the world too. Children and fine people died on 9-11. What country are you in? Did you get my tax dollars?

Hey, it may be a good thing if there is another country out there that would support us once the USA is a third world nation due to the massive amount of people allowed or not allowed to migrate. After all we've supported everyone else for a very long time while our own citizens suffer from hunger and neglect so I suppose turn around would be fair. I'd like to sit on my a_s and have the 'good' working people of some far off land give me shelter, food and free medical care.

When they stop killing each other and elect non corrupt govenments would be a start. Education is the key. All these charitys chucking money at them wont change a thing.

yes.....TONS of ways ...how about helping OUR OWN PEOPLE ! ! !  We help tooo many other countries when we have people living in the streets RIGHT HERE in the USA.  The $$ could be used for our security HOME HERE not fighting a trumped up war....

No. If we continue on in this manner we are doomed to self destruct and become a second world country. The number one problem with the American people is that we for some reason think that only people who have never struggled to make it understand the needs of the other 85% of Americans.

I hope so, too.  As one of millions of Americans who may benefit from this research.  I hope that the research gets the funding that is needed to help people.

No such thing as too much money in a free market capitalist system. Hmmm what would you suggest happen? Income redistribution, give some to the poor folks? Nope, they can go to work and make there own!\n\nDonna H down below me, for your information rich Americans are the most benevolent givers of any nation. We give to charities every year more money then the gross national product of most nations on this planet. So don't say they don't give anything back because that my dear.......is a lie!

Your question makes no sense what so ever. We don't help underpriviledged nations? Wasnt it the US who donated approximately 7.3 billion dollars to asia after the tsunami hit in 04. this includes money, food, goods and serices. wasnt it the US who donated over 500 million to pakistan after the earthquake last year? this seems like alot of money to me I mean hell I dont see myself ever getting to see the kind of money that we donated to these two natural disasters but I guee Bill Gates might. as it stands the united states is one of the first countries people turn to in time of need. So i relly am not sure where you are getting your facts from.

I'm not American either, but I'll explain anyways.\nThanks giving is the day that the Americans give thanks.\nIt dates back from the time the first English people (or the pilgrims) who came to America on the 'Mayflower' and got on land on Plymouth. Those pilgrims were having problems to survive, due to the irregular harsh weather and were dying.\nThey met with a few native americans, who helped them out and thought them how to grow harvest like corn, beans ect.\nAnd because of that, the pilgrims were grateful and in this same time, they decided to make a feast, thanking God and the native Americans for all they got.\nAnd that's Thanksgiving.\nHope that helps!!

Sounds like a plan. People here do need to get involved in this. The country is in total chaos right now, over so many things: Irag, immigration, oil, deficits, educations, etc. \n\n6 years, hundreds of biliion dollars, millions of illegal immigrants, $3:50/ gallon later, Bush is still an idiot. Selling the country out!
