“A New Era” Budget Includes Doubling Foreign Aid? {$50bn} Good Grief!
Ok, so forgive lack of URL’s, scruffy typing, and shortness of breath – due to running to make train and then unapologetic anger after reading the GAO-published New Deal budget document outling the Obama Administration’s spending strategy. Holy crap. iPhone cannot keep up with my angst-driven, head shaking, red-faced attitude.
Page 24 – ‘Put the United States on a Path to Double Foreign Assistance.’
This means the U.S., who already gives more to the developing world than every other nation combined, is supposed to DOUBLE our taxes to the needy beyond our shores to the tune of $50 Billion.
Seriously, how about we just stop selling arms to the corrupt dictators of these nations and call it even. Food and money never reached the right people (rather, is stockpiled and sold by these assholes) but U.S.-made landmines and cluster-bombs also hit their mark! The innocent STARVING and brutalized masses of these well-funded shysters.
Am I pissed off? You bet.

I’m always amused by the do-gooder intentions espoused by those who find it necessary to spend, give, etc… millions in aid and humanitarian assistance without realizing that they are simply feeding a business. Much of this money, among other things, pays the salary of contractors hired by the UN and various NGO’s without much love for America or even the people they are helping in many cases. Tisk, Tisk…
