 "Manifesto?"

 6.6% administrative overhead for USAID. Any NGO is going to have some
 level of overhead, it's the cost of providing services.

 The people that, you know, didn't starve or die of communicable
 diseases because of the efforts of USAID certainly benefitted.

 As for the libs being upset because they were the only ones "reaping
 the rewards", that's painting with an awfully wide brush. I'm upset
 because USAID is a great way to help people in need while extending
 influence into developing nations. China is quickly taking up the
 slack. Is that in the US' best interests?
