You know, fuck that person beside you, someone else deserves to be enslaved, err, fed. |

It's always the old people, the veterans, the poor. i work 10 hours a day - 6 days a week & I hate giving my tax money to people who don't wanna work ... BUT !! I really hate giving it to foreign countries. this is a great question that neither republicans nor democreeps want to address. pakistanis, egyptians, and every other muslim country hate us more than words can say and yet they don't hate us enough to say "no" to our money. do you know that we also give foreign aid to china? do you know that up until 2006 we gave foreign aid to saudi arabia? it may have resumed, i don't know. we really are an insane nation. |

I really hate giving it to foreign countries. because we have fiat currency. We need everyone else to have lots of dollars, and need them to have faith in the dollar. If that means we give some away to keep it the "world standard" and keep costs stable for ourselves, then its completely justified. As long as we keep giving it away, nobody really asks "what is backing it", because they want to make sure they spend all the dollars they have so they aren't stuck with a bunch of worthless paper. think about it. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 30079403 United States 12/17/2012 02:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There shouldn't be foreign aid at all, period, unless it's payed back at a reasonable intrest rate in a timely manner. As 'sorvereign' countries, this implies they are able to finance themselves and operate as a country. If they're unable to do so, they should be 'assimilated' to a neighboring country who can afford to support their lazy asses. Our foreign aid policy is a burden on ourselves and only re-enforces to the world that we're patsies and welcome them to use our goodwill against us....if it is even goodwill rather than a nefarious scheme of some sort. |

Maam, fiat money is an illusion. the jew banking cartel gives you paper and thru manipulation they buy up real goods and resources, and sway politicians to work for them. they are traitors. money right now is like the game hot potato. they are using it as fast as they can before people wake up and ditch their currency.. I dont believe the planet is big enough for them to hide. |
