Allahu Akbar!
The U.S. must take Monroe Doctrine now.
The U.S. must withdraw American Forces from all Foreign Countries now.
I love American99% and the U.S.
Japan, Germany and China are evil empires.
Allahu Akbar!

because what you fags call aid is in fact various bribery to keep the local government in check or finance a more US frenziedly opposition.
nothing goes to the people.

clearly we need more enemies like Iran instead of "friends" like israel

Bribing countries with foreign aid allows the US to more easily obtain commercial contracts, political influence etc etc

Illegal immigrants aren't Americans, and we give them plenty of money

>>71784661
The US also does as much in personal charity as the entire rest of the world combined.
Especially charity that benefits those from other nations.

If you use that instead of direct aid from our government, it would include every nation on Earth.

Yes.

Mostly food aid because they would rather spend every cent on their military and let their people starve in the streets.

Just like the charity industry, the foreign aid industry is big business, and with a lot of wealthy and thus powerful people controlling it.

C'mon, m8.
Put your cynical hat on.
It's not really aid. If you look at the pic in this post, then you'll see that USA is the highest contributor.
The highest contributor in Europe is UK...

It's about political leverage and influence. It is NOT about clean water supplies and feeding hungry brown babies. Nor is it about helping farmers, nor is it about building infrastructure, hospitals, schools, etc

Where do you think the money goes? Ask yourself.
Who distributes this generous free money in massively corrupt countries? Ask yourself.
How is that money spent? Again, ask yourself these questions.

The money given goes DIRECTLY to the governments of those countries. And who runs those governments?
Corrupt puppet states of USA, UK and EU. It goes into the pockets of those governments.

I don't know what the stats look like in other countries, but America has a long history of philanthropy, which has done far more for the public and global good than big brother.

I never denied America is generous with aid, that much is obvious. But it's hard not to be a little bit skeptical of the reason for SOME of that aid given America's history of installing corrupt political puppets in foreign countries and holding great influence over many others. Not only with the influenece of government aid but also aid given from government-linked private organisations.
For example: Organisation X donates 1 million dollars to presidential candidate Y.
Candidate Y once POTUS helps organisation X land contracts by influencing foreign leader Y. Surely you can't deny this happens?
