then Syl

would you favor for every Dollar cut from the defense budget we match a dollar in foreign aid?

After all if we are going to weaken our defense, we dont need to help others around the world. Just pull all our troops back home and let them defend themselves and take care of themselves

No need for any foregin aid IMHO

not our job to defend, not our job to take care of

agree?
