[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe we need to rethink how we go about foreign aid.

U.S. foreign assistance is primarily in the form of grants focusing on public health, economic development, and democratic governance in a multitude of countries.

And so much of US aid is stolen. Here is one article from AP "Millions of Ethiopians go hungry again as international aid is paused after massive theft". The US has given Ethiopia 1.8 billion dollars since 2022

China is more selective which countries in Africa and provides loans and aid for infrastructure and mining. Then these projects are required to use Chinese construction firms and companies to build. China has financed a major railroad line from Ethiopia to Djibouti so Ethiopia can export products easier to China[/quote]

China has the right idea here IMO. We can help others in a way that helps America. And 
 in ways that have a lot more accountability and less prone to theft.[/quote]

China is a communist country.  Since when do Americans read snippets of Chinese propaganda and forget the evil of communism. [/quote]

Ugh.  People like you are such fools.  The evil of communism?  How about the evil of American healthcare.  The evil of supporting mass murderer Israel?  The evil of having elected orange monster?  Man, the US may be a democracy but don't believe for a second we don't do as many if not more shady things than any other country, communist ones included.  You have no idea how happy most Chinese are in major cities there by the way.  Communism is alike every other system - there's some good and some bad about it.  Right now we have a convicted felon running our democratic country..
