Since Stingy is Still in the News

This lays out all the reasons why we have been, one could argue, the least stingy people on the planet. Look at the occupation of Germany. Yet, can you even argue that they're part of an American Empire? So, we were there to protect them. All that blood & treasure and little to nothing asked for in return. What do we get after all that? No respect, that's for certain.

That must have taken some time to compile. But the shame of it all is that this type of perspective will never ever get before the public in general. The MSM basically has only reported that we are stingy and then the numbers of what is given, but not the real giving.

I've been trying to find out who is the beneficiaries of all the charitable contributions. Somewhere I saw that, I think, Norway gives the most per capita, but the statement also said that they were a net recipient of aid for that time period. I really want to find out if that is true.
