This statement only holds true if you use the dishonest accounting tactic of counting only in real dollars, and not, as any sane and intelligent person would, by percent of Gross National Income. By this more reasonable standard, we are very near rock bottom among the other Western countries. Thanks to the generosity of our private citizens, we just barely beat out Italy. (To be fair, I don't think the IMF counts all the bombs we generously hand out to those nations who pledge fealty. We're surely number one at giving other people the developemental ability to kill each other.) We're not even close to the UN goal of 0.7 percent of GNI. I feel so generous. |

Since when is the US obligated by the UN to send anyone money? Where is this written?
