BACKGROUND
And Luxembourg and Norway have a higher per capita income than the United States, and almost no military to type of.
We should give aid to our allies.
I have no problem with this. Just take the money we give to the UN and dish it out to the “poor” instead.
The entire system of world trade depends utterly on the freedom of movement for goods that is protected almost entirely by the US military, especially the Navy.
Perhaps we should figure our defense budget into our contribution?
Foreign Aid. Welfare for all the third world countries that have no legitimate right to exist. Take Bangladesh. Can they feed themselves? No? Then we are we obligated to do so. I am sick of shoveling money into corrupt thrid world C**pholes that will never get their acts together. Meanwhile, hough they take the handouts, they feel free to criticize. That should end. Want us to feed you? Then you will do as you are told. Don’t want to? Then starve.
Actually, all the Eurowimp countries that have thrived under the US military shield these past 60 years without contributing their reasonable share to the defense of western civilization ought to donate 3x as much and the USA should continue to focus upon the defense of humanity against Islamo-fascists, ChiComs, and resurgent Russian militarism. Most EU countries are “free riders” behind a military screen provided by the USA - let them contribute more to international philanthropy if that’s what they deem so important......
Except that there is no good reason to think much of the “aid” sloshing around the world does anything except fill the Swiss bank accounts of corrupt 3rd World despots. All the private and individual funds cited in the article probably do far more good than any aid-to-governments anyway.
