Why doesn't the rest of the world take 10% of their 50% and do the same thing? Why should it be the job of the US to take the rest of the world to raise? Because our people have worked like hell for several centuries to get where we are now, why do we now owe the world a living?
Please don't drag out that old tired socialist crap again about exploitation of the rest of the world. We have no colonies. We pay for what we take and often that trade is the only damn money the other country gets other than foreign aid. The US hands out plenty of that and likely as not the recipients turn around and burn our flag and tell us how much they hate us. That hatred is usually based on envy for what we have.
No one gives the US aid. We have a good life and we have earned it through hard work. Yes, our government occasionally makes mistakes and those mistakes are continually thrown in our faces by the envious world. But let 'em get in trouble, and they yell for the US to bail them out.
Now go ahead and pick my post apart and tell us all how horrible the US is. Just remember, if it wasn't for American know-how and financing, this forum probably would not exist.
