The U.S. is going more and more into debt. We continue to give money to different countries. This is just increasing the debt. We're "borrowing from Paul to pay Peter". However, if the U.S. stops giving all the money they have been for so long, there'd be a lot of angry courties. What happens is all these pissed off people get together and decide to bomb us for being selfish?
What's your opinion on all this? |

just a random fact: the U.S. pornography business is worth the same value as the amount of foreign aid that the U.S. contributes. imagine if all of those porn purchasers were to donate that money to those displaced nigerians, darnit! this nation would be contributing twice as much aid!
anyway, in my opinion, the U.S. actually has an obligation to give monetary aid to underdeveloped nations, since it has claimed great leadership in the international community. if the U.S. wants to promote development, social progress, and stability as it claims to, it needs to display financial devotion to these causes, as well. in addition, it's most likely that the U.S. is contributing this money for a cause, rather than out of fear for uh.. the terrorists. now that i think about it, it's kind of a ridiculous suggestion. |
