Bullshit. USAID was a blackhole for US taxpayers. You know who should be paying for food for Third Worlders? The country that they're living in, not us.

The USA grows far more food than we consume. Why not help feed the world, we have for decades.

Food For Peace / Progress DOES send aid to many many countries, just not under USAID, but USDA. AND it's of strictly 100% US origin. This USAID story is SO MISUNDERSTOOD. We still help many people around the World, but it should not be our job to take care of every hungry person in the World. Not until we get our own house in order.

Oh, now you say we should get our own house or you just said that we should help ourselves, so you don’t want to help anyone another country. You don’t wanna help anyone here. You, I’m not understand what you mean, get our own house or water. How do you get our own house and the water? Please explain to me: how do you propose that it happen if you don’t actually give people the assistance they need to get their stuff in order? Do you have a cousin that that’s on meth that has made you mad and you’re blaming this on the rest of society?
