This is an even bigger scam than you can imagine. Every year Israel receives some 10 year deal from the US. This year I think they got two or three. It doesn't look like a lot, but this is basically $4 billion a year. Then another $3 billion from earlier this year. Then $3 billion from last year, then another $3 from the year before. Then the automatic $2 billion we give them every year, and before you know it we're giving them $30+ billion a year for nothing.
But we just can't afford to fix our infrastructure or take care of our homeless/veterans.
