First thing you need to understand is how Foreign Aid works. Once you grasp the concept of how the money flows out and back into the coffers of politicians you now have a complete understanding why someone wants to spend millions of begged money to get a position that pays $176,000 a year and they become multimillionaires in a matter of a couple of terms. Now to understand that concept you need to understand how shell companies work to shield this influx of cash where it does not reflect on the politician. Now you have the full circle.
