Iraq is not going to starve to death because of the absence of assistance from Arab countries.
At man's core there is a voice that wants him never to give in to fear. But if it is true that in general man cannot give in to fear, at the very least he postpones indefinitely the moment when he will have to confront himself with the object of his fear. . . when he will no longer have the assistance of reason as guaranteed by God, or when he will no longer have the assistance of God such as reason guaranteed. It is necessary to recoil, but it is necessary to leap, and perhaps one only recoils in order to leap better.

Our economic assistance must be carefully targeted, and must make maximum use of the energy and efforts of the private sector. . . Economic freedom is the world's mightiest engine for abundance and social justice. . . Developing countries need to be encouraged to experiment with a growing variety of arrangements for profit sharing and expanded capital ownership.
A healthier, less impoverished planet is good for all of us. From an economic standpoint, it allows people to contribute more to the marketplace and lead productive lives. U. S. foreign assistance opens new markets to U. S. goods and services and creates new trading partners and allies.
Give assistance, and receive thanks lighter than a feather: injure a man, and his wrath will be like lead.
I'd say that [Louis] Brandeis practiced a kind of a "living originalism," to use the title of Jack Balkin's great book. He said you start with the paradigm case, which in the case of the Fourth Amendment was these general warrants or writs of assistance, but you define it at a level of abstraction that you can take it into our age and make it our own.
Warlock,” he said. “I know who you are. ” Magnus raised his eyebrows. “You do?” “Magnus Bane. Destroyer of the demon Marabas.

And that was part of what we did with South Africa.
It is an eternal obligation toward the human being not to let him suffer from hunger when one has a chance of coming to his assistance.
Most single moms are very poor, uneducated, can't get a job. And if it weren't for government assistance, their kids would be starving to death and never have health care. And that's the story that we're not seeing. And it's unfortunate that we glorify and glamorize the idea of out of children wedlock.
No degree of knowledge attainable by man is able to set him above the want of hourly assistance.
My family grew up relying on public assistance to help provide meals for our family. Child hunger in America is a real and often overlooked problem, but one that together, we can fix.
