I voted for Obama the first time because he said he’d bring manufacturing back home. He lied. They are always going to lie to us because they don’t respect us.
They don’t just hate us. I don’t know what the word is but it’s much more powerful than “hate”.

Those born in a wealthy country,or any country, can decide how to spend their hard earned money any way they’d like. The government shouldn’t decide that for them.

Is that what happens? Is that what REALLY happens? OR Does the money get squandered through a bunch of NGOs that each take their cut for services. Does the remaining amount them get mismanaged and find itself in the hands of the foreign government causing the problem is the first place. Does maybe a few percentage points of that aid actually result in some positive? Maybe enough for a photoshoot, a pat on the back, and an election campaign talking point?
Wen ROI? 😅
