The Complaints
Foreign Aid Purpose: To create foreign markets for US products, esp. arms sales.
Foreign aid aids the giver, not the recipient.
Corruption is a major problem many funds end up in private bank accounts.
The leaders get the money, not the people.
Richer nations receive the most.
Foreign Aid Determinants:
Strategic considerations
Former colonial status
Political alignment
Drug policy
Foreign Aid NONdeterminants:
Need The poorest nations receive the least aid.
U.N. Voting Record doesn't count, if you can't do anything for the US.
