Probably spend it all on stupid things like universal health care, alternative energy research or public education.
Public education is the current enemy #1 to the neo-con fascists. What they want to do is shut down every public school along with every union member being fired. They then want to set up a "cyber school" that is mandatory, tax payer funded and is also privatised for profit forcing families to also pay every year to the company itself. This way the GOP can move the tax payer money from the teachers and schools straight into the charter school system's pockets. They will make homeschooling mandatory. And once the department of education is shut down and replaced by private companies we will see education drop, we will see much more ignorance than normal, along with much more racism. Local school boards will be appointed by the governor, and not elected by the local electorate. That way charter school owners can buy their way into the system.
This is what they are trying to do in Wisconsin

As an added bonus, they're destroying the Democrats' only significant source of campaign funding: unions.
Combine that victory with the Citizens United ruling that opens the floodgates for corporate money.
Republicans will be flush with cash every election while Democrats can rely on individual $5 contributions. The far right will literally own our democracy, lock, stock and barrel.

And thus the reason why the Democrats cannot get a left winger in their party. Obama is slightly right of center, yet the GOP call him a Marxist.
The GOP will ensure that state protected Mercantilism will be the future for our children. Look at what the Dem's did...force people to buy private insurance.
Why?
Because the Dems have to get into the corporate playing field to ensure their survival, and endearing themselves with big pharma and big insurance is much better than relying on unions who demand to be treated like humans.

Politics is actually an evidence that either Jesus doesnt exist, or that he doesnt give a shit.
Why sit back and alow us humans to go at each others throats over something as small as wether the host waffer is actually the flesh of jesus or just symbolic.

Don't you understand rev? In the Lord's divine plan, he let's us have this thing called free will. This, if you didn't know, means that we get the chance to CHOOSE whether we believe in him or not!
You see! God is that generous he's giving US the choice! And if we choose for whatever ludicrous reason not to believe him, even though the evidence provided in the Bible clearly tells us we should, then we can all go burn in hell!
So politics doesn't prove jesus doesn't care, it means he DOES care because he gives us the freedom to argue? Do you not understand my infallible logic?

Since the concept of "Jesus" falls inconceivably far short of any reasonable interpretation of "theory", it is utterly unqualified to claim any relationship to any evidence, whether that relationship is for or against.

There IS no evidence for Christ, my dear, and the only other apologist on here who would have kept badgering these smarties was Ryft...and it appears he has not responded in some time.
If you like, I'll enact my version of Godwin's Law and make it a free for all.
