| Message | It is not the place for the government to give the money it steals from the populace to other nations! If the individual wishes to aid other nations he / she may do so directly utlising one of the many charity organisations that have offices in our nation. |

| Message | We are split on this bill, we believe that some aid may be given...but there is a limit to aid because we can use that money on other things. |

Everybody else profits. Soldiers are the ones losing their lives, losing friends, having their lives disrupted. The real victims of American imperialism are its soldiers." - Fred Gardner |
