Last year Washington flew into a panic over an ebola outbreak in parts of Africa. USAID spent $1.4 billion constructing eleven treatment centers in Africa, but nine of those did not treat a single patient. The locals using hygienic products and traditional methods solved the crisis before the US top-down approach. USAID spent like a drunken sailor, with much of that one and a half billion going to well-connected “NGOs” and military contractors, and the people of Africa saw no real benefit. However, it was a “successful” test of the US Africa Command (AFRICOM), which deployed 3,000 US troops to “fight” ebola. Tune in to the Ron Paul Liberty report for the full story of this boondoggle:
