foreign aid...a wonderful umbrella phrase...with deep meaning
which is right next to deep shit...and deep six....
i think its perfectly normal that we borrow money to loan...or
give away to other countries struggling...
its much like how i go about making or influencing friends...
i break out the check book!!!

Every country provides aid to less fortunate countries. Like everything else in life, I wouldn't say that's a bad thing, as long as it's done in moderation. It's incredible that "charity" has joined "teacher" and "first responder" as negative phrases...
NOT done in moderation was the Bush administration's borrowing money from China to fight two unnecessary wars. Never in the history of this country have the following occurred:
a. Borrowing money from another country to fight a war, and
b. Having a war not result in a booming economy...
