Instead of aid how 'bout a tax rebate?

So, the administration has pledged $100M in aid just to get started...

Given that we are bearing the lions share of the fight against the Islamic assholes, are still recovering from our own hurricane, still paying for our aid to the big tsunami, other earthquake aid around the world (even to countries that hate us, like Iran), etc. etc. ...and given Haiti's demonstrated inability to make any forward progress with all the aid that has been given it to this point... my idea woudl be for the Administration to give that $100 million back to TAXPAYERS and then ask for donations.

If the government has $100M to put into a bottomless pit then I think it needs to go back to the American Taxpayer.

my $0.02.
