It's been going on for years.. We give money out like candy to countries all around the world so they buy from our defense contractors.. Yet the thought of providing free health care & education to the people whom live in this country, is considered socialism.

Don't kid yourselves these kind of payments are nothing but subsides to US owned defense contractors and various others..

easy example..

Egypt to Spend up to $3.2B Adding to F-16C/D Fleet

Egypt operates the 4th largest F16 based airforce in the world. Meaning they are good customer to Lockhead and that means US tax payer subsidy checks.
