What??? Who? What government would bring it's citizens up to believe such a thing? Isn't it good for all citizens everywhere to work for the benefit of it's society as a whole?

Isn't American policy to give billions of dollars in aid relief to poor nations right along side other countries doing the same? I think the goal of any good society is to lift the standard up.

I am sure I must have misunderstood your comment SG. My appologies in advance if so.
