U.S.:Be Balanced

The U.S. needs to quit putting itself into debt because of problems that do not even pertain to us. We, as a country, should try to repair America before we help anyone else. Is it really our civic duty to help others so much, to be a big brother with bail money per say? I do not think so. Do not think I am being harsh. I do believe that other countries do need help, but in moderation. America should focus on its own problems before helping others. Now I can understand if helping others, helps us. The U.S. should focus on battling hunger and unemployment before we help other countries do the same.
Now there is an exception to every rule. For instance, with the war in Iraq, the money going toward that endeavor is climbing to 400 billion. That is huge. It is almost unimaginable to think how much money that is. Although I believe that this amount of money is a bit over the top, I grant that is indeed necessary for the time being.
America needs to find a healthy balance that can determine who needs help and to what degree of aid they will receive. With regulations in place, aid can be given out proportionately and the money saved can go back into the country’s needs.
