Corruption at USAID is how the Clintons swindled Haiti of all that disaster relief money after the earthquake.no you'd do it over time but small amounts are not going to do anything. If I owed 140k me cutting a few pennies or dollars isn't going to anything at all. It's just a waste of resources.
Yeah, that's the Dave Ramsey method and even he would say it's a waste of resources to focus on a few dollars when you can focus on cutting bigger expenses. Like say you had 1000 $2 expenses for a total of $2,000 in debt, versus a handful of $500 dollar debts for $2,500. The latter is 25% more money erased through 200x less work. That's efficiency.
Some things shouldn't be cut though, like USAID. The amount of soft power that org gives us for only a 40b/year investment. With us gutting that, China can just swoop in and get that soft power we just had.
I mean do you see what's going on atm. Employees are blocked from going into the USAID building. They received emails saying to not come to work. Musk and a bunch of 19 to 24 year old's are doing who knows what and we're letting them get away with it.
I’m glad to see this happen. Sorry to see you’d like to maintain the previous status quo.
