Eliminating foreign aid does not eliminate crises and needs. Eliminating foreign aid will not constrain a President from addressing these reqirementsfrom carrying out his policies. from serving our national interests. Eliminating foreign aid will* simply transfer the burden directly to the Pentagon. The costs DOD assumed for taking care of Cuban and Haitian refugees at Guantanamo will become routine. not rare. We can support private voluntary organizations carrying out feeding missions in Rwanda or. we can deploy our National Guard. We can help train the military in Mexico to interdict narcotics. or we can drain the Pentagons accounts to patrol our borders intercepting drug flights.
