However, and we do give a lot, but as a % of gross national product, I don't think we exceed, and may even lag behind.

you're probably right.

but truth be known. I'd like to see about 95% of aid cut out to foreign nations. It makes no sense to borrow money, to GIVE to another nation as we're doing right now. So not only are we borrowing money and paying interest on it for them, eventually having to pay it ALL back.... we're going to end up forgiving their debt 10 years down the road. And they'll still be just another african nation without food or water.

I'm extremely "america first". I know this, and whether its good or bad. Its me.. completely. Take care of our own, and if there's extra (not money, just the principle of it)... then help out others.
