8.8.03

Have come across this sort of pro-US argumentation several times: "it's always the big bad USA, however nobody thinks about how much America spends on foreign aid". No wonder.

"The three best foreign aid providers in 2002, measured by the aid percentage of their gross domestic products, were Denmark (1.01%), Norway (0.91%), and the Netherlands (0.79). The worst was the US (0.10%) followed by the UK (0.23%)."

Might be the largest figure out there, but actually relative peanuts.
