. MILLENNIUM The MCC, established in 2004 by President Bush, has distributed more than $3 billion dollars for specific projects within the nations of Armenia, Benin, Cape Verde, Georgia, Ghana, Honduras, Madagascar, Nicaraqua, El Salvador, Vanuatu, and this week, in Mali..........where $460 million dollars is to be used for the creation of a 247-acre industrial park to bolster their economy, the re-building of their major airport to create support stations for farm-produce, and the permanent irrigation of 62 square miles of farmland. I would like to know what the other countries are doing with these MCC funds, which in my view, are a better way to assist struggling people, than all those totally wasted lump-sum foreign aid billions we keep depositing into the bottomless pockets of criminal governments which never use any of it to improve the lives of their people. How come we hear so little about this corporation? Why is hardly anyone bothering to report on it? Would it kill us to create some positive publicity for ourselves? We should announce the recipients with international press releases. =======
