>>>Do you have any idea of how many billions of dollars the US has given countries around the world in the last ....25 years....? Or even the last 10?<<<

Is this why the U.S. for decades supported tinpot dictators, because they were friendly distributors of the aid you mention above?

Let's try the question differently:

Do you have any idea of how many billions of dollars the US has reaped from countries around the world in the last ....25 years....? Or even the last 10?

America has about six percent of the world's population but utilizes close to 70 percent of the world's energy resources? Talk about astounding numbers!

Whether for oil, minerals, timber or labor, unfortunately, not for the good of most people in the world, the United States has raped many a nation.
