That's like if a Mass-Murderer, Rapist and Child Abuser thinks he's a good person ppl should look up to because he throws a penny in the hat of a bum.

How can you compare foreign aid and military spending. they are two different things.
But you must remember something. Whenever ANY country is in need (militarywise) america is there to aid them.

i didnt vote since my option isnt there..
IMO they shouldnt do either.
they should put the money back into its people instead of firittering it away outside the country.
better the education system with better equipped schools etc.. they last longer than bulllets and bombs..
either that, or just turn wild and conquer the rest of the world :D
