Political Matrix Series: Question 4

Agree/Critical. 

This is probably an area that a ridiculous chunk of what we spend on defense could be redirected towards.  Plus, it wouldn't even be difficult, as the military can and has conducted many a humanitarian effort in it's history.  Personally, I'd be a lot happier if my ship went out to the Third World these last two months rather than playing pretend war off the coast of Hawaii.  I know that the term "foreign aid" suggests a more direct type of monetary charity, but you need to have people on the ground for these types of things. 

Either way, this is the type of role I'd like to see the U.S. play as the world's only superpower.
