I didn't want this to be a right vs. left discussion, I wanted it to be a disgusted with the government generally speaking discussion. I believe that no matter how or who or where funds are allocated from that the objective of this and any other country should be to look after their own people. I think it is time, for a country that is massively in debt, to stop giving money that we don't have to other countries. I would say to close almost all overseas military bases as well but that is a topic for another day.
