Americans believe that about 30% of the U.S. federal budget is spent on foreign aid when in reality it is only 1% of the federal budget. Upon hearing this people often feel that the U.S. should give more money to more countries, yet foreign aid is what people wish to be cut from the budget the most. The top recipients of foreign aid are often in the Middle East and the majority of money goes towards “peace and security”. Many people disagree with aid being sent to Israel, yet they are our only ally in the Middle East. The question you have to ask is what happens if we were to stop sending aid to these countries?
