Foreign aid is just a means for congress to transfer wealth to their friends, family and selves

I was thinking that same thing the other night when I saw more and more political brats getting rich off political connections. I also thought it was a money laundering operation of the highest order.

No wonder the places where we send aid never improve.

Especially when 90% of our “foreign aid” goes to, you guessed it... Israel, and half of congress have duel citizenship with Israel! Wow! Must be a coincidence, right?

well is it just the dems that are crooked or are there republicans also

The real purpose of aid to Israel is to make a select few in the US filthy rich.

US Foreign aid to Israel: 74% of these funds must be spent purchasing US goods and services. More recently, in fiscal year 2014, the US provided $3.1 billion in foreign military aid to Israel. Israel also benefits from about $8 billion of loan guarantees.
In fiscal year 2017 (10/1/2016 to 09/30/2017), the U.S. government allocated the following amounts for aid: Total economic and military assistance: $49.87 billion.
How much does Israel give in foreign aid? Israeli foreign aid ranks low among OECD nations, spending less than 0.1% of its GNI on development assistance, as opposed to the recommended 0.7%.
Healthcare in Israel is universal
All of Israel's nine public universities, and some of its colleges, are subsidized by the government, and students pay only a small part of the actual cost of tuition.
Israel was ranked 19th on the 2016 UN Human Development Index, indicating "very high" development. It is considered a high-income country by the World Bank. Israel also has a very high life expectancy at birth.
The Global Competitiveness Report of 2016 to 2017 ranked Israel as having the world's second most innovative economy.[199] It was also ranked 18th among 188 world nations on the UN's Human Development Index, which places it in the category of "Very Highly Developed."[200]

less than 50%

But you don't hear a single Republican Trump socialist dick sucker saying a thing about it being a liberal ideal.

In case you missed it, I'm gonna post it again. US Foreign aid to Israel: 74% of these funds must be spent purchasing US goods and services.

why do you think so much money goes into campaigns,

winning is very lucrative for everyone involved.

Here's a little known FACT I guarantee you didn't know.
Jimmy Carter gave Foreign Aid to Ferdinand Marcos who then transferred it to North Korea. This was because Carter could NOT give them the money Directly. This was also in addition to the Nuclear "energy" plants that they said could NOT be used for weapons (a lie) plus all the Food he sent.
Carter was a much bigger piece of shit than you know, don't even get me started about his smuggling weapons through Yasser Arafat.

Exactly! Not a surprise though, most of them are “Christian” Zionists.
