You really l;ive in a fantasy world.
Care to say what "people" you are referring to that we "need to help
us"?
Right now the US gives hundreds of billions in aid to a whole ****load
of countries that need us to help them. So who is it that you think
is going to help us so badly?

Those are great questions. We need Russia to help us with Iran. We
need Pakistan to help catch the Al Qaedas. Etc.

A great portion of foreign aid is used to prop-up dictators and wins us
few friends amongst the great unwashed.
