Thanks for the primer on Jew-nomics 101
Basically, your take is, that if you are running a failing business and don't have customers.
Have the government create the customers for you by giving them money to buy your products.
Thus it's a Win-Win for both the business owner and the customer.
Plus, the government get's a piece of the action through taxes.
And the only person hurt will be the tax payer. But they don't count anyway, Right??
Our tax money eventually packs the pockets of the military industrial complex that Eisenhower warned us about while Israel gets to mooch a lot of weapons.
If that money stayed in our economy, private business would make better use of it.
I am against all foreign aid.
Nearly all the aid to Israel does stay in the US economy since it is given in the form of credits to be used to make purchases from US businesses, thus creating about 50,000 US jobs, and as this money continues to circulate within the US economy, it produces taxable incomes at the federal, state and local levels so that virtually all of it is recovered, so by helping to keep Israelis safe, tens of thousands of US families are kept safe and prosperous.
In addition, military aid contributes to US national security by keeping excess manufacturing capacity the US can draw on when it is needed.
While much humanitarian aid represents a net transfer of wealth out of the US economy, most military aid represents a net transfer from the federal government to the state and local governments.
