Our government gives aid to socialists, what about Americans in need?

Dear Editor:

You all remember the Dixie chicks and their fall from grace after slurring President Bush. Then we had a Venezuelan President slur the President of the United States on our own soil. Still Americans buy Citgo gasoline from a socialist country. We even have "Fuel Joe" offering northeasteners free home heating fuel to help with winter bills. All counties should have a "heap" program as Nassau does to help those in trouble. We could do that if American was not giving Venezuela $37,000,000 per year through the foreign aid program starting in 1946.

Venezuela is a very socialist country with the government owning everything. No free enterprise there and our foreign aid money goes right to their president, as does to all African dictatorships.

Wake up Americans, call for a ban on all foreign aid to countries that hate us.
