This is a very good explanation of Ron Paul’s position on foreign aid. I’m old enough to remember when conservatives opposed foreign aid.

“when conservatives opposed foreign aid.”

Do you mean like the 900 million dollars just approved from the World Bank to loan to Iran? Thanks to Robert Zollick, the president of the WB.

US taxpayers will end up funding these loans.

They still do. This new lot is not conservative. Never have been and their stripes are showing. From funding the 40 year old space bus (NASA) to throwing tax dollars around the world to Every Child Left Behind, their pitiful understanding of conservatism is about as strong as 1st grader's understanding of physics

Dr. Paul as usual is right on this issue as well. But instead of providing the Constitutional basis for wasting my tax dollars here and around the world, they'd rather call names
