Believing foreign aid benefits our national security allows for billions of dollars to be wasted, encouraging a foreign policy that inevitably leads to unintended consequences that come back to haunt us. Foreign aid support comes for various reasons. Some argue we are obligated to financially support those countries that yield to our demand that we maintain military bases in their country. American citizens are taxed to fund these foreign giveaway programs. That means funds are taken out of the hands of private citizens. Allowing government or bureaucratic decisions on spending capital is always inferior to private companies and people deciding how the money should be spent. But most importantly, foreign aid never works to achieve the stated goal of helping the poor of other nations. In poor countries food aid becomes a tool for maintaining political power. Many of the large foreign aid grants are driven strictly by special interest politics and a pretense that it serves our national security.
