As we fight poverty, aging military equipment, horrible base living conditions, and vet homelessness should we be sending so much money overseas?

Israel
Middle East

I don't think we should be sending money to countries that hate us for one thing. I also don't think we should be buying anything from countries that hate us, and I think anybody that honestly knows what I'm talking about would agree.

"Countries" do not "hate" anyone. Only some people in some countries may hate some other countries. I doubt the average rice farmer in China gives much thought toward the US.

SFC (verify to see) I often find myself asking the same question in my mind. I personally think NOT! Sending aid in other forms than money is a much superior form of assistance. WHY? Think about it. MONEY is the easiest way to encourage self-serving government officials (both sides of the transaction) to pocket something for themselves. If they need food, ship food through known charities. Same with clothing and medicine. Sending money to almost ANY political officer, assuming their fidelity is more of a fool's errand. If it's assistance to help them after a weather emergency, for instance, fund it through known and trusted charities with histories of doing good.

MSG (Join to see) If those countries do not provide a modicum of respect towards the U S, they s/not be recipients of our benevolence!
