Aide

With the uprising in Egypt comes the review of aide that the US gives, why is the question. I suppose with Mubaraki being a debatable figure why support the people right, my thoughts would be to suspend all aide.

Yes the US has been supporting many nations and has very good friends in Israel and Egypt but lets face it, the US is broke. Over and over we hear that the US is the greatest economy but what many fail or afraid to say is that being the great economy does not make it the richest. The Country is in debt and borrowing to support other nations is not doing the taxpayers any favors. Many politicians state that families are have to do with little and readjust their budgets, well its time the Government make tough choices

Supporting other nations with borrowed money makes as much sense as using an expired passport to travel, at one point someone will detain you. Lets address it as it is, the largest economy simply means they are many consumers in the nation than any other nation, it does not mean that it has the most money. The Country could soon drown in debt, there is a point to say even to friends “sorry I cannot support you, I need to put my house in order” and that is what needs to happen now.
