Never, since they aren’t foreign.
Foreign aid, this time meaning aid from foreign countries.
Maybe because we had to borrow the money from them first?
First, we need to put tariffs on all the countries with brown and yellow people, driving our economy into the toilet. Then maybe the EU will take pity on us and send us some aid.
They’re sitting on a pile of our IOUs. How about they spend some of that money so we don’t have to send money there to feed their ridiculously poor?
How do you spend an IOU?
Why would foreign countries give aid to such a rich country as America? Especially when we’ve gone out of our way to alienate pretty much the entire planet.
Doesn’t Venezuela have a program where they give poor Americans heating oil through some US subsidiary they have?
Ah yes, seems that at least in 2009 it was still in effect. And costing them 100 million dollars a year, too. So that washes with our China expenditures, at least. Yay for Chavez’s ego, I guess.
You’re incontravertably too insular to acknowledge it , but according to Washington Post $854 million in foreign aid/assistance was offered by foreign countries to the US after Hurricane Katrina.
When you get backed into a corner you love to trot out this accusation of racism…
…a country of brown and yellow people whose birth rates outnumbered that of whites as of 2010…
Spot the irony of your statement. Of course you can’t.
More irrational speculation, or more specifically, scare tactics. Your argument has at best the most tenuous support from history, rife with exceptions. (Such as China, whose economy has not been ruined by its tariffs.)
Well, I certainly see the irony…

Hey kettle–the phone’s for you–it’s the pot.
Ah, the “I know you are but what am I?” comeback, again.
Anyhoot… why the fuck are we sending aid to China again? They already have our jobs. Isn’t that aid enough?
No, it’s not that. It’s that you’re a hypocritical jackass who makes accusations of racism when there is no basis for it.
Yes it is. “I know you are but what am I?” is your best shot. You’re the bunch of idiots posting baseless racism accusations like this:
“First, we need to put tariffs on all the countries with brown and yellow people”
as if you guys think this is a war on brown and yellow people.
What a bunch of feeble minded bobbleheads.
That’s not what anyone supporting offshoring supports. If you were half as smart as you think you are, you would understand that.
