Yeah... I am definitely trying to stay objective here and not condemn anyone this early. Information is literally flooding the media and it is difficult to wade through the bullshit spin fest.

While the definition of theft or criminal act may not apply to this money situation... would that make it just? This is IF the information regarding the 300,000,000 is true. If I were to ask for funds from an outside source... and then use those funds for anything other than the original intended purpose... I would hope that someone would hold me accountable. It seems that people want to talk about the growing debt our country is putting on itself... but doesn't want to play hardball with the people spending the money. It's plain logic. You ask for something for a specific purpose... you abandon that original purpose... you return the money because it wasn't approved for ANYTHING other than that original purpose. Whether or not the State needed it doesn't matter. Although, with their surplus it should be obvious that it could have been better utilized elsewhere. Government money is distributed for specific reasons. While it may technically NOT be criminal in the sense that it was intentionally misused or physically stolen from someone... it is still highly irresponsible.

Example: You beg your little old grandmother for $200 to buy textbooks for next semester... you drop out of school and use the money to buy an Xbox 360 :wtf: Is it criminal? Maybe... maybe not. Is it right?

All of this relies on the information being accurate :jointsmile: Just throwing stuff out there.

This race is so intense. What an incredible time to be a young American. This time period is going to have some long chapters in the history books of the future.
