Americans now where near the top of generous aid providers per GNP

...when measuring only official government assistance through government budgets, not including private giving such as the Gates Foundation.

Private donations in the United States, for example, are estimated to be at least $34 billion dollars a year

which is almost twice what the government officially gives.

It is a funny idea of generosity that relies on government (mis)appropriation.
