Re: Split off topic: Military Spending vs more Humanitarian means of spending
That is the purpose of most of these threads, Jet, Im tired of how polarized we are on these subjects, that i have chosen to stop picking fights on things i know we disagree on, but rather find common ground where we can share some sort of idea, while sometimes disagree on how to get there, as long as we can start on common ground and work together things remain civil.
I only wish congress would work the same way.
Im kinda borderline on the foreign aid thing. It comes down to the greater good thing though. I think Famine and starvation are better reasons to help with foreign aid than oil and uprisings. There are so many different situations and so much that we dont know that i dont want to make a blanket statement like what you said.
