What are your thoughts about this? I do appreciate the kind gesture but i worry about usa economy & feel that our own education system, soldiers, hospitals deserve this money more than any foreign country. Pakistan is a highly corrupt country & if you follow their politics closely, all the international aid goes into politicians' pockets. It never reaches the needy. I wish there was atleast a way to keep tabs on them to make sure its used for intended purpose. The tax payers should vote on this but unfortunately we dont have a say in anything.

Despite giving lip service to education reform, the Obama administration has decided to put an end to the very successful D.C. school voucher program. This despite a United States Department of Education report that found students in the nation's capital that were provided with vouchers allowing them to attend private school through the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship program had made statistically significant gains in reading achievement.
Columnist Juan Williams, who can often be found providing the liberal perspective on the Fox News Channel, called the decision to end the program, "Obama's outrageous sin against our kids."
$18 trillion+ in debt here... no problem, we will pick up the tab...
