I interrupt to bring to the forefront a policy statement issued by the TRANSAFRICA FORUM in October, 2008.  It is relevant, perhaps, to the recent tragedy in Haiti.  You decide.  In the fall of 2008, the ‘breakaway’ Republic of Georgia (not the State where Atlanta is located), but same-named former part of the former Soviet Union received a one billion dollar gift (1,000 million to us Americans) in foreign aid, announced by then VP Dick Cheney.  Aid to Haiti from the U.S. at the time was $30 million.  Perhaps the reasoning is that if you’re ‘country’ is involved in political disaster, pour the taxpayers money into your troubled economy.  If your country is a victim of ‘natural disasters’ you’re on your own, baby.  It could be that, or it could be something else.  Have a look:
