Depends on the nation needing aid.

I don’t see an issue helping an ally like Canada.

Handing out cash is a different story.

I dont’ think this poll is strictly about handing out cash.

First off - the poll has no identiy. You don't know who constructed it, or what they do with the answers!!

I won't answer a poll whose authors don't identify themselves.

Secondly - there are no provisions for "provide aid seldom and only when in the interests of the US!"

None Socialism is evil. If people as individuals wish to help others that is one thing but people being forced under threat of going to prison (IRS failure to pay taxes) is quite another.

First off, I do the poll. I’ve been a Freeper since 1999. I don’t do anything with the data. It just sits and waits for the next poll to be written. I appreciate your concern about agendas of the pollmaker, but sometimes a poll is just a poll.
