Original Note:
Polling has shown that US adults tend to overestimate the share of the federal budget spent on foreign aid. Surveys from KFF have found that on average, Americans say spending on foreign aid makes up 31% of the federal budget. The actual figure is 1% or less. https://apnews.com/article/usaid-foreign-aid-freeze-trump-peter-marocco-8253d7dda766df89e10390c1645e78aa# https://apnews.com/article/usaid-foreign-aid-trump-dictators-freeze-de4b211931515315ef699c8fc7d37239
