I used to be extremely fiscally conservative....socially, always moderate to liberal. But as time has gone on and our government has seen fit to "waste" billions (approaching a trillion) on such things as wars that the right deems "worth it" (although more and more people are rejecting this idea), I figure if we're going to waste money on those things, instead why not waste it on things at home like handouts to the poor and yes, even handouts to those people that are lazy. At least it's staying here at home. It's extremely frustrating to hear arguments about how wasteful it is to give handouts to lazy people who don't deserve them but at the same time it's ok to waste billions on bombs being blown up in the middle east. The facts are that the US is wasting billions on wars that do little or nothing for the citizens of the US....and some people would argue that it's actually done us more harm. This money could be better spent on other things, both conservative AND liberal.
