US Arms Industry Would Lose Big from Egypt Aid Cut-Off

[Civilization2]

5. So, "foreign aid" is actually CORPORATE WELFARE !!! Color me surprised,.

"Virtually all – or an overwhelming proportion – of the 1.3 billion dollars granted under Foreign Military Financing (FMF) is plowed back into the U.S. economy, specifically into the U.S. defense industry. "

Tax dollars to arms manufacturers, who spread murder and brutality around the globe, is good business, so much so that we have to lie about the meanings of words like "coup",. however programs of actual social uplift are bad, because the rethuglicans don't like them, and we just simply must play nice with the opposition,. since they are always so considerate of our positions when they hold the power,. . what a joke of a system this is. Welcome to corporate-fascism.
