i say we set a cap on the amount we give.
we'll give you 'x' amount as long you can prove its being used efficiently.
the only way we'll go over 'x' amount,
is if you sign your nation over to us for rebuilding,
and become a temporary American province.
we collect a certain % of GDP,
and leave them with a country much better off than they had before.
maybe we shouldnt run away from 'nation-building'
we should maybe be 'nation-builders for hire'.


but seriously,
what is chuck hagel doing as a sponsor for obamas bill?
