"...The United States is currently giving 0.16% of national income, the smallest percentage of any of the G-8 countries..."
THE PROBLEM ISN'T THAT WE ARE GIVING ONLY .16%! THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT IS .16% TOO MUCH!
I'd like to see some return on my investment. How about these folks stop seeing 1 thin penny until they start to purge terrorists from their ranks.
The other countries need to increase their national income. That way their percentage of giving will go down, too.
