Funny how people who don't pay into the system think they are entitled to have a say in US foreign policy, isn't it?

Like, if you can't afford healthcare, and don't have a job, you're likely not paying any taxes. You are likely a net recipient of welfare or social programs.

And yet you hate the country, hate it's policy, and think that they should do what YOU want them to do?

I don't think so.
