The US could easily afford to do more. The Bush administration gave $250 billion per year in tax cuts to the richest Americans, raised military spending by $150 billion per year, and then turned to the poorest people of the world and told them that there is no money available to meet America's promise.
美国完全可以拿出更多。布什政府每年对那些最富有美国人降低的税收达2500亿美元，军事支出则提高到了每年1500亿美元，然后他转向世界最贫穷的人们，对他们说，美国已经没有钱来实现它曾做出的承诺了。
