Why do we offer foreign aid

[Cleita]

28. My dear, the workers do their best.

They just don't have the back up they need to do a job that needs to be done, like get people on trumped up drug charges out of the jails they are dumped in. The best they can do is contact family and hope they are rich enough to buy lawyers and bribes. I'm not talking about stranded tourists.

Yet, if an American company is threatened, our military starts moving in and the ambassador is at the capital and presidency of those countries making threats for them to back off. When such said company is accused of say worker abuse, the local police move in to squelch the dissenters. It's because the company has called in their aces for the foreign aid bribed politicos to do the job they have been paid for. This is why Allende was removed in Chile and why we are supposed to hate Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro. They refused to be bought by the USA.

Yes, the diplomatic corp that are not in the loop of the corporate Game of Thrones, do the best they can. Also, a little of the aid does trickle down to public works, very little. I have seen this corruption close up and heard of it even bragged about at dinner parties where VIP people from both sides are present.
