I propose a constitutional amendment:
As long as the US is in debt, it cannot give foreign aid.
LET'S GOOoOoooo!!!
That money is owed by the nation and it cannot afford to incur more debt. If the country has a surplus, then it's up for discussion.
Not sure if that's the legal way to do it.
I want a rider to that amendment. The US can never give away another dime to a foreign country that isn't approved by the citizens in a vote whether we are still in debt or not.
Foreign aid has been nothing but money laundering from the very start. It is how they turn our money into their money.
Each citizen should get to decide whether or not their portion of the money is either used as foreign aid or given back to them.
If the government has decided that it did not need that amount of tax money to run our country then it should return it to the taxpayers. If an individual taxpayer is good with it going to a foreign country, that’s fine. But if our country doesn’t need the money it shouldn’t be taking the money.
