Just a Waste of Money

OKAY...I KNOW I'M IN THE MINORITY

Here it is straight out...

I think all the money spent each 4th of July on fireworks all across this country could be spent on much better things...like filling in the potholes for example in our highways that seem to be falling apart!

I hate noise. Not that you're going to pay any attention to my complaint.

I hate the big waste of money spent on fireworks on the 4th of July.

Just once I'd like to read somewhere, or see on TV, the exact cost of all the multiple fireworks celebrations spread across this country in every city large and small.

It would also be interesting to know how many fires were started by explosives, how many injuries were sustained, how many animals, especially dogs, were terrified by the noise and ended up running into traffic and getting killed or injured.

I know most of you have a different mind set. I'd be a hypocrite if I lied to you and said, "Oh, fireworks are just the most beautiful thing in this world next to a pretty nude pudenda... I think spending millions of dollars to put pretty exploding lights in the sky for a few minutes each 4th of July is ridiculous..

    I will go see fireworks but will never spend money on them. Big waste hugs V
When I lived in Malibu, I used to go to Venice, Calif. and watch when they had big shows of fireworks shot out over the Pacific. ...Those shows must have cost millions of dollars because they lit up the entire beach front for over an hour of repeating explosions.

    I AGREE with you on the waste of money nowdays.
It would be interesting if the NEWS jerks would add up how much money WAS spent this last 4th on fireworks... I betcha' IF we knew how much money went down the drain on silly explosions, NEXT year there would be a BIG change in the expenditure....

    Yes, it's very wasteful when people in that same society are starving and homelessand it could go to improving road surfaces for the sake of safety.
Thank you Mel... I don't think the majority of people in this country realize how badly we've deteriorated in all of our infrastructure since the end of the Second World War.

    never thought of all the money spent on fireworks each 4th of July, just enjoyed seeing shit blown up and hearing the loud bang as it happened, carry over from the service I guess, built bombs for most of my career. never got to see them dropped on the range though.
I fired so many different weapons in the Infantry, and heard and saw so many explosions that I guess I just got filled up with it all..

I can understand how you guys who work need these days off to rest up, but I hate seeing our country spend money on needless things when so much is broken these days...
