It doesn't matter if Assad gassed 72 or 1 Million people. It's not OUR FUCKING PROBLEM and we have no moral obligation.
Why the fuck is some Syrian worth 2M dollars. The strike costed $150M for just 72 Syrians.
Says a lot about you that you value human life like that.
Yea, I don't give a shit. Should we bankrupt our nation because muh human lives. News flash, if we spent the same amount per American, the budget would be $600T. Save their asses and then they come as "Refugees" and rape our women. They wouldn't even spend $10 on you and we're ok with spending Millions. Pathological Altruism is a disease.
Why should some Syrian be worth $2M tax money?

It's that nutcase you helped put in office who'll flip you over and do you dry, r/Donald_Dumbass provocateurs.
I've seeeeen it before, but I honestly don't remember the our stunning failure starting so quick and being so obviously and incredibly STUPID at the outset.
Ohmygod are you guys ever in trouble - and I mean deep, deeeeep shit. If you end up like us, you - America - have only yourselves to blame.
On some level watching our alleged moral betters implode like this fills me with a sense of soure joy. For so long, you swore "Never!"
And "never is about to come and go.
Enjoy.
MightBeANovelty is a mod on r/Physical_Removal where he gushes on his love for Pinochet and his extrajudicial execution so him not caring about the persons Assad killed with chemical weapons should be a given.
And good to see that, as a good ancap, he reduces the value of the human life to an amount of money.
"Save their asses and then they come as "Refugees" and rape our women. "
And yet nary a fucking word when it's one of your own doing it.
And while at it, I hope you don't claim Christianity. If you do, you forget Matthew 25:41 and Ezekiel 16:45-49. Though considering how Randian you sound I doubt Jesus teachings mean a damn thing to you.
What about when they come from Germany/England and grab your women by the p***y?
I hate that "our women"! You don't own any women, asshole! They are their own women.
Do you know what it cost to get from Syria to the US? They spend thousands of dollars to get to you.
If the Orange Clown had coordinated with other countries, the cost of the bombs could have been shared... Or some more diplomatic solution could have been found.
"Why should some Syrian be worth $2M tax money?"
It's not that Syrians are worth anything, this was about Mein Trumpf buying better poll numbers by stirring up the marks.
talk about making the wrong argument for the right point.
or, well, _a_ right point at least. _the_ right point would involve pointing out this missile strike was nothing to do with anyone outside of the USA; it was a publicity stunt for the domestic market exclusively. plus, if the point had ever been to stop insert-random-name-here from using chemical weaponry, this strike was not a very effective way to go about it.
as for what it actually cost, that's near impossible to work out given the inaccuracies of military accounting, and the fact that the greatest share of the price tag was likely in opportunity costs. (two destroyers will now be needing major reloading before they can do much else, no small task.) we can only hope they were firing old TLAMs, near the end of their shelf life, so as to keep the overall cost down. but i'd not count on the pentagon to be that smart.

Oh, I dunno. Just ask your Retard-in-Chief.
Because he just spunked away over forty times that amount in taxpayers money via those Cruise Missiles the other day, in a pathetic attempt at a distraction from his own adminifrustration , and the lowest approval rating of any president since statistics were collated.
Someone with an inherited balanced budget & trade surplus worth trillions spunked that away into a $14 trillion debt with his very similar actions...:

...and he's still a far better president than what's in the White House right now.
Clinton lied, no-one died. And that's why there's a statue of him in Pristina, the capital of Kosovo: a mainly Muslim country.
People laughed at me when I got prickly over seeing Ayn Rand fans in places like the Furry Fandom and the Brony Community. I was told they were just oddities and not a dangerous political force, even if one is a literal gun nut.
Not so funny anymore, is it?
I'll grant you that $150 million could feed a lot of poor people in say Ethiopia, or Los Angeles, but on the other hand we already spent money on those missiles, we don't get it back if we don't shoot them.
And there is, in theory, a deterrent effect - if we do nothing, tomorrow it might be 72,000 people gassed. It might be some other country. But, again in theory, now the leaders who would do that have to weigh the value of doing so against the possibility of having their shit blown up. So it could well save many more lives in the future through deterrence, but of course it's hard to see evidence of crime not committed.
@ Gabriel LaVedier:
Setting aside that I really do not understand those communities, finding people of this sort in any community isn't an oddity nor even slightly amusing.
They're dangerous, wherever they are, and need to be called out wherever they are. If their ideas go unchallenged, Very Bad Thing happen...and you might be surprised at just how fast.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
