This reminds me of an old Political cartoon from about 60 years ago.
A girl labeled Foreign Countries is setting in the lap of a smiling Nikita Khrushchev.
Uncle Sam is standing looking very mad, and she turns and says to Uncle Sam...”Of course I love you. I’m wearing your ring(Foreign Aid) aren’t I!”
Yes. I remember. So much for all the “useless foreign aid”. I also remember Nikita Khrushchev saying “we’ll bury you”.
