Speaking of woman empowerment and “I’m from the Government and I am here to help you”, we just got word about another beautiful example of vibrant diversity dating back to Obama’s era. A federal program created by Barry Obama’s administration has spent 90 million bucks (taxpayers dollars that is) over three years on an awesome project: to find work for Afghani women in their own country.
The program has been a huge success, like everything the dear leader did: after 3 years of bone-breaking work and buckets of cash spent, 55 Afghani women were employed. That would make for what, 1.6 million dollars of US taxpayer money spent per job? And if you are wondering what’s this craziness, well, it’s about promoting gender equality in the Middle East (in an autocratic Islamic country of all places), on US taxpayers dime. As per a report from the Washington Free Beacon:

You could have just given them $50k each and saved a boatload of money.
All I have to say is they must have been beaten severely with the ugly stick.
The average annual salary in Afghanistan is $11k. (Which is really high for that part of the world.)
$90 million over 3 years, or $30 million a year could have litterally employed 2,727 people.
Find out who got the money and get it back.

Much more successful than Live Aid that saved one person for 125 million. Barry, you da MAN!!! See, government spending is better than the private sector!
It wasn’t ever about the Afghan women.
It was about government jobs for lots of Obama supporters.
“..........A federal program created by Barry Obama’s administration has spent 90 million bucks (taxpayers dollars that is) over three years on an awesome project: to find work for Afghani women in their own country.”
.......and nary a kiss from the Democrat party for the gift of all that skimmed money.
If you wonder how much of that money went to line the pockets of Afghani government officials, the most probable answer is:
..
..what was Odungo’s cut? (Kickback)
Isn’t it great to spend someone else’s money?
Likely $89 million of which went to bureaucratic overhead.
Its not merely a poorly run or efficient government program.
It was planned, designed and implemented as outright theft. CIA probably needed cover to funnel money to some assets in-country. Afghan cronies probably knew who would get how much in advance. Now the money is in banks in Dubai.
Why you should use every means available to reduce the flow of money from our wallets to the corrupt federal agency that harassed conservatives on orders from obama.
Over $1.6 million per. Good work if you can get it!
The primary prerequisite for any government job is the ability to convert the public’c tax dollars into you and your agency’s
salaries and benefits as fast and obscurely as possible!!!
Bingo!
I found work for more people in a month’s time on a yearly salary of approximately $30,000. For 20 years.
