re: All foreign aid is quid pro quo

Just where does it go anyway?

In Ukraine's case...

The money goes to Ukraine, it is skimmed before going and when it gets there (% unknown), then the remainder is used to purchase U.S. equipment...

In other words, the vast majority of the money goes full circle right back to the pockets of defense suppliers and contractors, who in turn donate to politicians...

The only reason anyone gives a shite about holding up aide to another country is it is fricking with their cookie jar...
