U.S -Egypt relationship.

I have only two questions. The first is Why the Americans don't just mind their own business? The American people have their own problems. I don't think that man in the street in the U.S will be affected if Egypt is ruled by a dictator or by a democratic president. The man in the street cares only about his own interests. Second questions is why the U.S give money to Egypt in the first place? We don't need it and we don't want it. A lot of America's financial problems will be solved if the U.S government stop sending U.S aids to other countries. I wish they would do so, really.

@ All, Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee dooooooooooooon't waaaaaaaaaaaaant your Moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooney. Taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaake iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Don't you understand? We don't want it. Take it.

 

Try to understand all of you. This money is the American people's money Nooooot ooooooooours. The U.S government take it and give it to the Egyptian Government. The man in the street in Egypt doesn't even see it. It's your money not ours. Take back what belong to you. We have a lot of money here in Egypt. We're a very rich country. There's a big difference between the Country is rich and the vast majority of the people are not rich. That's why the revolution has broken through 2 years ago. We have a lot of financial sources, Suez Canal, Tourism, Natural Gas and hundreds of other resources. Take your money back. WE DON'T WANT IT.

I don't see that many hybrid or electric cars on the road, and I don't know of any hydrogen fuel-cell cars currently on the market here. I don't imagine that the percentage of US electricity generated from wind or other non fossil-fuel sources is that high.

And "the man on the street" in the US would be THRILLED to not have his tax dollars go to Egypt!  

The corporate-government of the US sends all of that money to you to make itself richer and more powerful.  Personally...I've seen what my tax dollars do in other countries, and I want my money back. : )

Well, If the Americans need it and the Egyptians need it, and the U.S government give it to the Egyptians and other countries as well, then it could be an indicator that the government doesn't love its people. I mean the American people.

Remember, this U.S  financial aid that is given to other countries is the American's people money after all, so be sure to know where your money is going and to whom. Don't give money to other countries when there are poor people in the U.S.

I'm not going to say something stupid like, "America is the greatest country in the world and should run everything" or that the US government has never done anything wrong (because this obviously isn't true). But conversely, has America never done anything right in terms of foreign policy? And, if Egypt does not need foreign aid from us, are there other places that could benefit from this? I have no idea how much money is sent to Egypt, specifically (or any other country, to be honest).

One example of something America has done to help others, of which I am aware, is famine relief in the Ukraine during the 1920's. I think that there was some help sent to Haiti after the earthquake several years ago. Do you really think it was wrong of the government to send this help?
