According to NBC News, Barack Obama is proposing that American taxpayers spend about $1.55 billion for aid to Egypt and $1.5 million for aid to Libya in the next year. As much as I like Obama, I think this is absolutely ridiculous. Clearly, this money is not being put to good use if the extremists of these countries are killing Americans and burning the American flag. I think we should get out of these countries completely and leave them alone. We need to worry about ourselves in the United States. These countries really shouldn't be a big deal when there is a horrible unemployment rate and a bad economy here. I honestly don't understand why we would try to help people who clearly don't want it and are against us. This whole story really makes me question whether I am for or against Obama.
