In the early 2000s, people from my USAF unit flew to Iran on a relief mission. They took food, clothing, blankets, medicine, water, water purifiers, and literally filled seven C5 Galaxy cargo planes with humanitarian supplies... NONE of it was reported on the news, only those of us who were involved with it knew anything about us sending US service members and aircraft to freakin Iran after a massive earthquake. At least they stopped the "UNALIVE AMERICA!!!" chants for a while. All through the 80s and 90s we had the Afghan Relief missions where we would fly wounded and injured Afghans to Germany where the US military would give them medical aid. Tens of thousands of people who had stepped on Russian landmines or were injured with the conflict at the time, flew on USAF planes to get free medical care.... how did they repay us for that?

The money builds the rocket and then stays behind. People dont fundamentally understand that. They think its going TO SPACE. Like the rocket is made of money and that money could have literally been turned into food. - You benefit directly from the technological advancements from those sectors. - Hunger is largely an economic issue and is complex because subjecting farmers to supply and demand actually creates food shortages, but the price floor that allows them to mass manufacture food leaves out the greatly impoverished. - Bad people create poverty with weapons on purpose. So what, only the bad people get weapons? Thanks America, for not falling for that BS. If you had, everyone would be screwed already.
