Of course I circle back to my decades in the Lutheran church. There the message was just as John laid it out, i.e. it went from helping your neighbors, to feeding the starving children in India and Africa, to feeding the entire world, to bringing them here, and also give everyone medicine and technology, too. All while while being accused of white supremacy and burning up via global warming or "raping the planet" for resources. I bailed out of the ELCA during CoVid and see no reason to return because I figured out the grift of being blamed for all the world's problems. John, you are 100 percent right, it would be the height of stupidity to keep giving out aid as we plunge ever deeper into debt. We can't afford to, not if we want to preserve our own nation.
It’s important to remember that your typical leftist rarely, if ever, worries about his neighbors. Rather they worry about the abstract, the unknown and identifiable people who they believe are worthy of our unlimited support. I have see in several pieces written by El Galo Mato a fascinating graph which reflects the conservative tendency to focus on the near (family and neighbor) while the same graph reflects that leftists focus on the far (country and world) which supports my argument and likely explains why conservatives give more money to charity and liberals want to spend your money (not theirs) to far off semi abstract places.
To this you can add the politics: this foreign “and” is overseen by leftists getting high six figure salaries at NGO’s which are supported by forced charity given to them (taxes) and the mountains of cash that flows back from the NGOs to left wing politicians.
The cognitive dissonance of these people is blaring and blinding.
Either they know it and deliver these inane posts to keep inciting a base addicted to the absurdity, or they really subscribe to a cult-believe that we should pay to save everyone on the globe from any harm, or else we are responsible for their harm. Regardless of which, they are people to be ignored after being prevented from ever having any power to carry out their absurdity and/or cult beliefs.
Bingo! There are givers and takers. America has sold its own children’s futures under the guise of helping our fellow man. I believe we should as well. I also believe you take care of your own family first. Share what you can and help them get to their feet. Then walk away. But I certainly would not do so at the cost of my family.

Well said, John.
