Yeah you have to lay down the law. Personally I don't give a rats ass about where it came from. I hate the fact people try to guilt others to buy a food product from where it originated for some moral reason. I'll buy Mezcal or Tequila made by half Japanese Innuit with a quarter of New Zealander and is Jewish where it they built a place in South Africa to grow Agave. As long as it is good I'll buy that thanks... If I must pay it will be an American brand and that's to support the buisness location near me - but I won't drink it if that taste like arse either for patriotic reasons. I just want a solid product and nation or creed be damned.

@kumarg3598 It isn't communism. Don't be a fool please. There is nothing in capitalism or democracy that says taxes cannot be spent on subsidizing. In fact the government and our taxes currently support tons of businesses. Do you know how much the government gives to subsidize industries like milk or corn? Look into it. The question is a hell a lot more complicated than what you are saying. I agree though - sometimes we give money we shouldn't to foreign countries. Yet there is usually a larger picture that most of us don't understand. Our military for instance is one of the reasons why we are so wealthy. We rarely give anything for free either- there is always a catch 90% of the time. If there isn't then that would just be corruption most likely. (Politicians getting money or something for doing it.) Or the aid is actually just stuff that we don't need anymore. "Hey we don't have any place to store all this grain. It will go bad - how about we give it as charity than say how much in money we gave."
