But... Ian Miles Cheong is right, *starts lighting some gas* > Why are our "governments" using our stolen taxes to pay for foreign aid in daily bombings creating these refugees? Wouldn't the refugees stop feeling compelled if the west got the fuck out of their countries? And we should stop providing foreign aid because it's actually manipulating their food markets killing their farming practices... Like if our governments provide food aid to foreign countries what incentive do their local farmers have to grow? In a market between paying a farmer for their services and skills to grow food or grabbing free food from foreign aid, what would you prefer?
