Czech US Missile base: Keep U.S. dollars at home

Flood-ravaged Americans are struggling to preserve their heritage and recover from the June 2008 floods as Cedar Rapids was just awarded $2.7 million in federal aid relief for flood recovery. Multiply that devastation by 30 cities, towns and agricultural regions, and it is no wonder the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 300 points June 26, the largest drop since 1930. Compare that relatively small $2.7 million in federal aid to the $310 million originally set aside for a U.S. radar base project in the Czech Republic. It’s totally unjustified to fund unproven missile technologies and radar bases in foreign countries while U.S. roads, bridges, dams, levees and tunnels are in dire need of repair.
