You know I don’t agree with foreign aid anyway I see it as a forced redistribution of my tax dollars and worse yet if we have to be forced or stolen from I would prefer the money went to our own citizens.

I grew up in a house that had no running water, when you swept the floor, you didn't need a dustpan, all you had to do was to sweep it between the cracks and let if fall to the dirt. The outhouse was there, and the well (appropriately far enough from the well). As a boy, I can remember many times getting a bath in a big washtub.

The house wasn't modernized until 1958 with running water and bathroom. Even so, in the early 60s, I can remember Thanksgiving was great with TWO (countem, TWO) Swanson Turkey TV dinners. It's a matter of perspective.
