[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Foreign aid keeps Washington DC afloat. There are so many people who work in foreign aid in DC - practically the entire middle class. All the beltway bandits, half the contractors. All the people flying around the world on American-flagged airlines. All the foreigners sent to DC for conferences. All the IT support for tracking foreign aid and building dashboards for monitoring it. It's going have a tsunami affect on the DC metro area and send us all into a recession. [/quote] This. Not just DC. This will have ripple effects globally. I fully agree that a different approach is necessary but why a complete stop work order!? There are literally going to be open trenches for children to drown in. Guess I'm coming to terms with this admin not valuing life so much and it's jarring but definitely a cultural shift (also maybe not that surprising per the trend in school shootings and lack of empathy there). It would be nice to have perhaps shared out a massage to instilled trust in our world first re: sucking aid out to at least temper the tone. [/quote]
