U.S. Taxpayer Dollars Being Given to Dictators and American Haters | PoliJAM Blog

U.S. Taxpayer Dollars Being Given to Dictators and American Haters
By PoliJAM September 22, 2009

Large amounts of American taxpayer dollars are being given to countries where corrupt authoritarian dictators rule and the United States is openly vilified.

Just a small example of some of the aid being doled out:

■$98 million to supposedly strip Kim Jong Il’s North Korea of nuclear weapons
■$20 million for political prisoners in Raul Castro’s Cuba.
■$6 million to promote a civil society in Hugo Chavez’s Venezuela
■$500,000 for border security in MuammarGaddafi’s Libya.
■$26 million for police in Eva Morales’ Bolivia.
■$56 million to support the rule of law and human rights in Vladimir Putin’s Russia – “Arguably one of the world’s richest nations.”
