Senate agrees to triple anti-AIDS funding
U.S. to spend up to $48 billion in ambitious foreign public health program

WASHINGTON - The Senate voted Wednesday to triple spending for a much-acclaimed program that has treated and protected millions in Africa and elsewhere from the scourges of AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis.

The 80-16 vote committed the United States to spending up to $48 billion over the next five years for the most ambitious foreign public health program ever launched by the United States.

We are fighting two wars and facing our own financial crisis. They are going to triple the amount of money we (the taxpayers) give to other countries. Somebody get me some rope... now. How about we invest that 48 billion into our own "public health program"? Or I don't know.. maybe border security?

An how fucking full of themselves are these guys?

The Democratic-led Senate, rarely in agreement with the White House, gave Bush credit for initiating the program.

They take our money and come to an agreement with regards to who gets credit.

The US government is more concerned about its image worldwide than its own citizens and people who elected them.
What else is new?

Anyone wanna start a revolution? Pleeeeease? It's about time we had one.

I am, there is no excuse. There is a time to be charitable and a time to focus on domestic issues. We aren't just talking about an increase, we are talking about tripling aid at a time when most Americans could use the help. It doesn't get any stupider than that.

Well at least this is foreign police that the rest of the world can agree on. When it's foreign policy most of the non-US doesn't like, it's usually the opposite and cheered by many US citizens. lol

This is good foreign policy. Fighting aids which is a global epidemic. You can't see that this is helping you, as Americans also?

If you want to argue about throwing money away, look at where most of your money is going. And then be up in arms about that, rather than the small amount you are providing in health care to a nation which needs it.

I agree that your economy could be focusing on it's own problems, but your health care and public schooling has been suffering long before any announcement like this could change upon.

It's a lot of vaccinations for American kids. We have our own families who have to find out how to pay for these necessities now. I wish our leaders would start leading Americans.

Well isn't it fun to spend other people's money?

The role of government has far exceeded its intentions and value. Do people forget why government exists. It isn't to spend your money, but thats certainly all they seem to be good at.

Timing... . Think about it.. let it marinate in your head for awhile. Who the hell are we going to be able to help when the bottom of our economy completely falls out? Who are we going to help when our FDIC completely shits itself because fuckatards don't have a clue about how the banking system works?

I'd love to hop up on the do gooder bandwagon. But I'm not going to completely destroy everything in my path to win a popularity contest.

As far as "Global Epidemic"

The HIV/AIDS Epidemic in the United States
New HIV infections each year are down from a peak of more than
150,000 in the 1980s, to approximately 40,000 per year today.

No amount of money is going to stop the spread in Africa.It would be better invested looking for treatment/cure.

BF2S should just form it's own political party.... I'm sure we'd get some support, advertising that our platform is "Americans for America". Then, after the US is under our control, we move on to the other nations represented here....

Yes, FDIC insured doesn't feel as reassuring as it did a while ago now does it?

It's easy to spend money when you can just have it printed up.

What I don't understand is why do we need a full time Congress?
Do they not just sit around passing laws that suck?

This is yet another slap in the face to the American tax payer.
