[QUOTE]Originally posted by keithsan: [QB] well, you cant win with the facts especially false ones from WW2 the US government pays aproximately 25% off all un aid given, funds the IMF and World Bank. That does not take into account theprivate American donations which are the highest in the wold for foreign aid. One of the reason private donations are so high is that the govenment provides incentives for this. Our Debt is higher, correct, we are fighting 2 wars. They cost money. Although we could take 15 billion off of our debt by not giving foreign aid in 2005. So, if needed, we could turn our debt around. We will not do that though. Our unemployment rate is 5.5% what is yours, I now most of Europe is 10-20% where I am now is 12%. We get little sympathy when we are attacked, that is true. So, our enemies announce who they are and we will go after them. I am sure you hate the Iraq war, but, you have leaders of European countries and Russia who stated their intelligence said sadam was plotting against the U.S. Could he do something, i dont know. We didnt think Bin Laden could and look what he accomplished. IMO if these types of people want to fight we will go and fight. If you want to complain about america do it, dont exagerate your existence though, you can complain all you want, but a lot of your citizens come here to work and never leave and even more come to get an education. This is a wonderfull thing, I cross your borders and enjoy your hospitality yearly myself. Personally, I feel a lot of the anti-americanism is fear and jealousy. When I'm in Europe they often say ahh America doesnt have the history. Well, look what we've accomplished in much less time. as for aids. in 2005 America is sending 1.26 billion dollars. I think its too much, but Annan had asked all countries for more this year. Also America donates another 5 mill to get infrastructure etc. built in africa. if you are interested in the whole 2005 aid package, approved now, which usually goes higher. Here it is.
