Foreign aid is taking money from poor people in a rich country and giving it to rich people in a poor country.
Our government is not giving aid to foreign people. Our tax dollars are being sent to foreign governments, which use our money as leverage to continue ruling over and oppressing the people.
Many of these foreign governments have atrocious human rights track records, including beheading Christians.
As an example, you have the nation of Pakistan, which harbored Osama Bin Laden for years and is currently imprisoning the man who helped us catch him. Yet we have sent Pakistan billions from the American taxpayers over the last decade and a half.
Foreign aid should really be called “welfare for dictators.” It isn’t authorized by the constitution and it isn’t how the government should be using our money.
No more welfare for dictators.
