U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job

 

The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA), a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will pay $2.6 million in U.S. tax dollars to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job. 

Now anyone that knows me knows that I am all for any research, and or education, that will prevent the spread of disease. (I am also in total support of teaching people how to drink responsibly). I guess my issue is that I am confused as to why our taxpayer dollars are going over to China. 

Why we aren't spending equal amounts of money in the US to prevent the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases? 

You know what would be a great idea? How about a government funded program that funds the distribution of sterile needles to IV drug users right here in the US?

Could it possibly be because China has the Obama administration on it's payroll and we are being financially blackmailed? 

It doesn't take a genius to figure out who is benefitting from this, now does it?

"Me love you long time"

Failing to keep another campaign promise, President Barack Obama has decided to keep in place a ban on using federal money to support needle-exchange programs.

Obama's budget plan, released last week, still includes language prohibiting federal funding for needle exchanges, even though the White House website stated until very recently that, "The President ... supports lifting the federal ban on needle exchange, which could dramatically reduce rates of infection among drug users."

That statement has been removed from the White House website; an Obama spokesperson cast the issue as one of timing, not intent. "We have not removed the ban in our budget proposal because we want to work with Congress and the American public to build support for this change," said spokesperson Ben LaBolt. "We are committed to doing this as part of a National HIV/AIDS strategy and are confident that we can build support for these scientifically based programs."

However, Tom Angell, a spokesperson for the group Law Enforcement Against Prohibition, said it was "hard to imagine how removing mention of support for a proven lifesaving program from the White House website is part of a grand strategy to 'build support' for syringe exchange."
