Children are a political tool

America has never protected the children. Not in my 60 years anyway. They have been sent to die in corrupt wars, been denied healthcare, lived in poverty and rotted in prisons. And I don't see much protection in the future. These politicians should be trembling in their boots at the anger in the country, but they aren't. If people really cared about their children there would be a mass exodus for Canada, because America has never protected it's children. I don't have kids and I don't understand how the parents of this country aren't up in arms over the decision of the bought and paid for politicians to not make the kids safer.
