U.S. to give Egypt $190 million in budget help: Kerry
Free money!
![]() ![]() http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/s...7676882.story# "CAIRO (Reuters) - The United States will give Egypt $190 million to support the government's budget, Secretary of State John Kerry said on Sunday. Washington was providing the aid in light of President Mohamed Mursi's "assurance that he plans to complete the IMF process", Kerry said in a statement after meeting Mursi in Cairo. Egypt says it wants to reopen talks with the IMF on a $4.8 billion loan which was agreed in principle last November but suspended at Cairo's request following street unrest."

As much as it sucks, they look at it as an investment. But its an investment that won't pay off.

Every tax dollar I will ever pay is just a small drop in the bucket being given away to countries I could give a fuck about.

Don't kid yourselves these kind of payments are nothing but subsides to US owned defense contractors and various others.. easy example.. Egypt to Spend up to $3.2B Adding to F-16C/D Fleet Egypt operates the 4th largest F16 based airforce in the world. Meaning they are good customer to Lockhead and that means US tax payer subsidy checks. |

The last couple of weeks they have talked about all the budget cuts that will be forced on us and people losing their jobs and here we turn around and do this. Going to be pretty hard to explain to a guy who works for the government why he has to lose his job because we can't afford to pay him, but we can afford to give this money to another country.

Cue GrantMercury to tell us how "greedy" we all are for NOT wanting to give away the money we earned to the govt. in taxes so they can give it away to other countries and give it to their defense contractor, green energy, oil company, and a thousand other political cronies.
Yes, Obama has turned out to be just another politician. Not the messiah. |

Haven't we always given Egypt the second most amount of money after Israel?
We shouldn't be giving anyone money. At all. Period.

Yep. We give EVERYONE money. And I totally agree with you, we should not be giving money to anyone right now when our own nation is BROKE.

100% agreed.
Maybe in the beginning it was a good strategic move meant to make friends around the world. But I'd say that decades later it is an utter and complete failure (everybody hates us because of all the conditions we attach to the money). Just like everything the U.S. Govt. does it's full of fraud, waste, and corruption. |

Why in the world are we giving money to Israel? So they can take some more territory that isn't theirs?

It isn't free money. There are US interests being funded somewhere in this.
My guess would be that security of tourist areas is one thing. That has fallen apart since the Egyptian uprising. They used to have security perimeters and police checkpoints to keep local criminals away from the tourists. But now the tourists are roaming freely and going into areas they shouldn't be in because nobody is there to stop them. |

How about people who are homeless right here in the U.S.? Or people who are hungry? Or people who need medicine and medical care? That money would go a long way in helping AMERICANS in need wouldn't it? I thought Obama and John Kerry and all Democrats deeply cared for all of us? No? You mean they are just like the Republicans and are more worried about Egypt buying more weapons from us so they can line the pockets of their defense contractor friends??? NO WAY!!! GrantMercury is gonna feel like a child that just discovered Santa Clause isn't real! ![]() |

Thing with Israel is that it has the same owners as the US, so sending money from US to Israel is just the right hand passing money to the left.
However Egypt is not owned externally, sending money to them is an attempt to gain/maintain control ![]() ![]()

Israel wouldn't even wipe its ass on the paltry amount we send Egypt.

Are we paying off a loan to them? FYI: Egypt owes the US several billion.
