Reflection Journal

Write a two page reflection on the following topic:

Although foreign aid spending is only a very small portion of our annual budget, (Currently about 0.1% of the Gross National Product), The US still spends billions of dollars a year on foreign aid. Some people feel this is too much of our money and that we should spend nearly all of our money here at home. Others feel that we don’t spend nearly enough and that we should spend a great deal more helping other nations. How do you feel about this issue? Explain what you think the government should do with the money and why.
