here is an interesting article
turns out all the money we gave russia during clinton's presidency
for purpose of reform, democracy, etc
went into the hands of the guys clinton picked to oversee the program (and the money)

lol I thought harvard supported clinton out of misguided idealism
not so, seems clinton picked the harvard team to manage the money
cause he knew they would line their pockets with it
what a quid pro quo
no wonder Harvard vociferously defended him in the Impeachment

I am glad the Justice Department is investigating this now

the whole article is meaty (and specific)
here's one part which explains in general where our foreign aid goes

Anne Williamson is a Soviet and Russian specialist and author of the forthcoming book, Contagion: The Betrayal of Liberty, Russia and the United States in the 1990s
She says

The issue isn't political or cultural, it's an issue of corruption. It addresses the fact that our government, and representatives chosen by the government, are corrupt. There are large groups feeding from the public treasury under the camouflage of foreign aid, humanitarian work, building a better world, exporting democracy - all phrases under which the theft is organized. The answer is to end all foreign aid - absolutely, tomorrow, shut it down
