[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In simplistic terms, yes the US should be spending that money at home rather than giving money away to poorer countries. But as others have mentioned above, it strengthens the country’s soft power, creates goodwill, or if you’re cynical, buys influence. [/quote] I am a USAID contractor. Huge project shipping aid to Africa. I think one huge flaw with the program is that 99.5% of what we buy, billions in tax dollar payments go to foreign owned companies and factories. Give the *literally* billions in purchases to companies manufacturing in the US and keep sending foreign aid. Win/win for workers here and people there.
