Yeah.

Just saying.

There was a thing, one of the YouGov polls recently, I did a triad about this, where Americans were being asked what we need to spend money on.

And a large plurality said, oh, the country should be spending a lot less money.

You know, we just spend too much money in this government.

We got to cut spending.

And then it asked people, just individual programs, should we spend a little bit more, a lot more, a little bit less, a lot less?

And on defense and Medicare and Medicaid and Social Security, large pluralities or majorities saying, lots more.

Need to spend lots more on these things.

Yeah.

The only line item they tested that people said we need to spend less on.

Was there a second one?

Oh, what was the second one?

Yeah.

And foreign aid is like 1%, I think.

1.5% of total spending.

It's a very, very small part of government spending.

And it is...

A place where you just get enormous ROI because, again, nations have interests.

When you spend foreign aid, you're not just like helping people on the ground.
