"Now, I’m not mad about how the Trump administration chooses to spend US tax payers money. (Though, as the only non U.S. citizen in my family and given I own several American businesses, I pay those taxes too.) And let’s be real—America isn’t the first to cut foreign aid. Even the European countries complaining about USAID shutting down have been doing the exact same thing – cutting aid and making international development subservient to foreign policy goals."
