When they say, "funds that combat terrorism" they mean us giving money to countries that hate us in hopes that they dont hate us. And when they say "create opportunities for American workers" they mean defense contractors making money on war.

And when they say "create opportunities for American workers" they mean defense contractors making money on war. Fuck foreign aid. I say we give them dick. Let them take care of themselves. I hate that my taxes go towards paying any foreign country (or illegal alien) one fucking cent. Ugly dems always trying to make other countries like us by paying billions. Just like ugly fucks like ff2 and Elliot spitzer paying hookers to bang them cause know regular girl would touch them because they are hideously ugly. I'm telling you it all comes down to them being so grotesquely ugly. We beautiful people don't understand because we can get laid in the real world without payment, but ff2 and the dems are so ugly that they have to pay. Liberals are the party of ugly brainwashed fucks. The more ugly, the bigger democrat. Yuck.

I despise giving money to the likes of Pakistan, who was harboring bin laden for a decade.

It's a big 1% of budget. It's money well spent.

It's a big 1% of budget. It's money well spent. 1% of a $100 budget, OK. I don't give a fuck about a dollar. But 1% of this countries budget is a shit ton of money. Money that absolutely should be spent more wisely, if not spent at all. What if we put that 1% towards paying off our unsustainable debt? That might be a good idea.

We ought to have a lottery with all needy countries, pick one, and fix their issues. Then move on to the next. Sending starving countries flour doesn't do anything long term. There is too much corruption with foreign aid right now. Build a desalinization plant give them pipe and seed and do it again.

It's a big 1% of budget. It's money well spent. The failure to acknowledge even 1℅ is important when considering needed cuts in spending. That's how you create a budget. When your proposed budget has more expenses than income, you look where to cut. And you cut every "penny" you can. Show me a business that considers 1℅ of its budget insignificant, and I'll show you a poorly run business. While I believe every penny counts, the federal budget will never be balanced until someone has the courage to reform the dollars that go to entitlements.

I meant to convey that I think 1% is appropriate. And yes of course we know any budget considerations that are NOT SS, Medicare/Medicaid or Defense are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic. Which is why I laugh when conservative go after PBS first. As if thats some kind of accomplishment.

You want to support them, donate your own money. But federal funding of those things means the gov't starts to decide what is art, who gets grants, etc. and you know who benefits? Folks who are already "in" or rich, or fill out grant forms well. John Stossel had a good piece on this recently.
