This is a little old, but is still relevant because of two things: continual conservative support for foreign aid and Mike Huckabee possibly running for president in 2016. Huckabee is defending foreign aid; that is, he is advocating that the government take money from Americans and give it to foreign governments and organizations. But what if someone doesn’t want the government to send money to Egypt, Israel, or some country in Africa that he has never heard of? Doesn’t matter says the government and Huckabee. You would think that Rev. Huckabee would be familiar with the commandment “Thou shalt not steal.”
