Spin things??? Per capita is not some kind of twisted ways of looking at stats...it allows you to see relevant statistic by taking the population in consideration...

Fact is: you are focusing more on your infrastructure than 19 other countries in the world...

wow I can't believe some people still can't see it...

I even said that it was a GREAT thing that USA was giving a lot of money to aid...but can't you grasp the simple fact that...considering their population, 19 countries are more generous...

If your point is to prove that the US buys more rice for poor people...you are RIGHT... but stop acting like americans are the most generous people...

In other words: you could say the US gives more money...but you can't say that as an american, you give more money than other countries LOL...
