Letter: It’s time to take care of Earth and stop wasting tax dollars – Worcester Telegram

So were funding Elon Musk's and Jeff Bezos next big adventure into space with our tax dollars and off the blood, sweat and tears of the underpaid, abused workers who made them insanely wealthy.

Its almost as big a waste as spending most of our tax dollars on a military whose mission lately seems to be looting and plundering the planet for cheap resources while committing genocide and creating refugees. For whom?Our corporate giants with their fat military contracts. Were even paying billions for them to stockpile more nukes which if we use just one, were goners.

So often I hear the Libertarian mantra about the people who live off the system: people who get housing, disability, food stamps, a free lap top or phone. What about these bloodsuckers. No one mentions them. Theyre hailed as heroes and jobs providers. This planet is in hospice due to our using our atmosphere and oceans as open sewers and destroying the nature we depend on.

Time to get our priorities straight. Time we took care of our Earth Mother and each other and stopped wasting our tax dollars on those who have too much as it is.
