[DIRTYSECRET]

Remember the aid to Africa concerts in ‘86? We are the world? All that money raised disappeared. It was like the prose written on the bathroom wall:

When afflicted with the crabs take the ashes from a lighted cigarette and rub it in the affected area. It won’t cure the crabs but it sure feels good!

[Bruce Campbells Chin]

It's a bargain right now. To do this kind of damage to the Russian military with zero loss of U.S. life and with the numbers in the tens of billions is ridiculously cheap.

However, I personally wouldn't support massive funds for "reconstruction".
