Some people believe that the government should not spend money on international aid when they have their disadvantaged people (the homeless and unemployed). To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Since a vast amount of resources have been used to

aid

other

nations

, there have been various controversial debates on whether or not governments should engage in humanitarian work for other

nations

and use these funds to

aid

domestic issues. Due to the harm done to the economy and side effects seen

as a

result

of these activities, I support the mentioned viewpoint which would be subjected to objective discussion during the course of

this

essay.

First

off, it is true that providing international

aid

requires a lot of resources, including human labour and financial resources, which could

result

in a lack of funding from the government.

As a

result

, numerous domestic issues like homelessness and unemployment would worsen, even though these subsidies should have been used to address them because they have a significant negative impact on the homeland. Meanwhile, the development of new companies and the construction of housing for the homeless could both benefit society by creating additional jobs and improving the general welfare.

As a

result

, the economy would create a surplus, which would eventually provide more

aid

to the desperate countries.

Furthermore

, authorities might encounter upheaval in other

nations

by paying excessive attention to international affairs. Many governments intentionally or inadvertently sow uncertainty by getting excessively involved in local political matters of the receiving countries. Particularly, many private firms attempt to intervene with local governments while providing support, strengthening their power to benefit themselves.

As a

result

, these governments’ integrity would be compromised, which might give rise to several unlawful behaviours.

Additionally

, poorer

nations

are more prone to lose their internal motivation, which is crucial for national development, when they excessively rely on foreign influences.

This

is taking place in some

third

-world

nations

, where people stop taking the initiative to solve local problems in favour of waiting for outside assistance. In conclusion,

first

-world

nations

should focus more on domestic concerns rather than on international ones as the benefits are more apparent for both the giving and the receiving ends.
