Well I am coming to the conclusion that we shouldn't really help anyone, anymore. Whatever action we take in this world we come under constant criticism. Maybe some of the "near superpowers" should start carrying the burden instead of being the first to criticize. Maybe it's wrong to wish we were cut off the world, but some other nations that are rich and have power should help.

Government do need to increase investment in R&D of Fusion, it is our future, wind energy, wave energy, solar energy, these are all temporary for the arrival of Fusion and i do hope i will able to see it before my days.

Yea that might be a little too extreme. It seems all the major governments of the world are seriously researching Fusion, the biggest one being ITER.

You know there is a Chinese proverb, when a tree grow too big, it attract most of the wind, i think that might apply to America's situation.

It's just that the majority does. Would you personally help anyone that hates you, and is out to cause you harm? Trust me when I say some of the criticism is deserved, but not nearly to the level we get it. What really irks me is many of the nations that do criticize us have a history of war and other crimes, which they seem to easily forget about.

thanks for the last comment, appreciate that, umm i know it's sometimes it's hard to understand why America is always the target of everything
From wars to globalisation to environmental issue.


PS: Here is a phrase from The United States Declaration of Independence:
"Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness"

that is the right of everyone, i am sure your founding fathers fought hard for these rights, and maybe it's time for America to help those less fortune

You know I wouldn't have a problem with my country feeding these nations if they made efforts to become self sufficient. It doesn't seem like they are interested in fixing their issues, and instead expecting us to solve their problems.

See your second paragraph? Thats the problem I really have with the world. They expect us to do this and that like we are the servant of the world. Then if we don't do it, or don't do it their way we have to accept the criticism. If people from outside the US are allowed to be upset with us why can't I be upset with people outside the US? I have plenty of reasons.

This country has a history of helping the less fortunate; even today this country continues to help the less fortunate. However, I am critical of helping the less fortunate nations especially since once they get what they need they have a nasty way of turning against this nation. Look at all the nations we have helped, especially the ones we help rebuilt after major wars (If you get my hint) see if they are truly friends even after putting all our money and effort into restoring their nation. Now do you see why I don't want this nation to help anyone, anymore?
