Yep....imagine how much LESS we'd be hated if we...say....stopped shelling out hundreds of millions of bucks a year to countries who don't like us anyway and have no intentions of ever paying us back! We'd win tons of friends that way, I'm sure!

How about the ones that you shell out to that have no ABILITY to pay you back? At last count the US had over 30 countries yoked to it who couldn't even pay off their debt interest, never mind the debt itself...

I honestly would rather that all that money was distributed to non-governmental organizations, so it was used to feed people and provide some medical care for them, rather than for some dictators to get their rocks off buying tanks and f16's.

Um...in that you shouldn't've lent the money to them in the first place?...

......that you are giving them the money in the full knowledge that they can not pay it back, and so will be in your debt and in your pocket. Sort of an economic imperialism.... least thats what I think HE`s trying to say.
I'm not saying the UK doesn't do it too, hell we're worse than some I could mention, but it seems a little blind of people to do things like Band Aid and not notice that so many countries are struggling under the weight of debts they can never repay.

Why not? Are we to be penalized for helping out the less fortunate?

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio
You mean helping them to get so far into debt that they can never get out again?
Yeah, real charitable.

Yep DD....that's the beauty of America bashing....we're targets either way...lol...if we don't lend the money and/or keep the handouts flowing, then we're the selfish greedy ba$**** rich boys who are not interested enough in world affairs to lend a helping hand. If we do, then we're meddling. That's cool though....we learned the basics from our European forefathers....
