#USAID is corrupt because the Aid Model doesn't work and everyone knows it. It is like a religious leader who no longer believes in God but keeps his position, status, and salary. It is inevitable that corruption will set in. Listen to @magattew

Foreign aid doesn't work. Everyone who works around aid knows it. The people handwringing about stopping aid know it. Think about this. When everyone knows it a lie-it's already corrupt at its core. So all the abuse is no surprise. @magattew @PovertyINC

#USAID scandals are no surprise. It should have been shut down a long time ago. The only benefit of USAid funding their friends is that the money didn't create even more harm in Africa. Aid politicizes development and "created the Third World."

Do you know who's the happiest that #USAid is being shut down? African Entrepreneurs like @magattew #USAIDScandal is what happens when you build an institution on a model that doesn't work in the first place. It creates a parasitical relationship.

US Aid is corrupt. Aid doesn't work. Aid hurts poor countries. #USAID has been engaged in what @Pontifex has called "ideological colonialism" for decades. Shutting it down is good news for the US and the world.

Even if USAid were not corrupt--which it obviously is -- it should still be shut down because the foreign aid model doesn't work. It harms poor nations and has created a poverty industry.

#USAID doesn't only subsidize corruption. Foreign Aid "created the third world," delays the development of business in Africa, & creates incentives for poor nations NOT to build institutions of justice that enable people to create prosperity. @elonmusk

Prudent, moderate, reasonable comments from @RandPaul acting like a “senex” - a mature man- instead of an adolescent debater discussing science. Whether you are more or less skeptical of vaccines than Senator Paul, this was refreshing

Relativism is a gateway to ideology. We think of it as open-minded or anti-absolutist. But relativism closes the door to philosophy. Our minds & ideas become the arbiter of truth & reality. Without truth, ideology is all that is left.

Good advice for public speaking. I do this a lot. Practice speaking while walking up a hill or jogging a bit is very helpful -- when/if nervousness arises, you have practiced with elevated heart rate.
