Yup. And spent on what, that's right, the Middle East. 20 people get killed in Syria, they go to war, 250 school girls get kidnapped in Africa by a genuine terrorist group, and nothing. Thousands of Christians murdered, tortued, raped etc in Indonesia every year and we give them 300 million in Aid.
There is something badly wrong with the world today, and it's called Israel.
The USA could run a basic free health system for their population for a 100 Billion per year.
Old news, and no longer true. Most have no idea of the depth, vigilance and spending going on here on the 'clean up'.
The Youth of China are as highly educated, and just as motivated and vigilant as any other Nation on Climate Change and environmental impacts.
Japan, for one example, has been doing it since industrialisation, difference is China uses all it's resources available to it, Japan does not. Imagine wanting to pull your own people out of poverty, the nerve of them
Australia's wealth comes from "happily sacrificing" and selling it's own resources, so I'm not sure what leg you're standing on there.
Maybe Australia should have spent a few hundred million keeping Holden, Ford and Toyota in Australia rather than spending billions supporting America's military machine? It's what China does for it's Auto Industry, and ironically, so does America.
