The progressives like to mock ordinary people who object to this kind of wasteful spending. I'm sure the elites in these countries who pocket most of this money greatly appreciate it. Obviously, little to none filters down to the ordinary people.
Foreign aid has been described as taking money from poor people in rich countries and giving it to rich people in poor countries. Pretty accurate.
The next time you hear some democorat wailing that we have cut spending to the bone, recall this list.
