    from

    "USAID was established in 1961 by President John F. Kennedy"

    That's 64 years. Most human human organizations can manage about a
    dozen or so years before they become too corrupt to function
    on their own economics and start to parasitize their host.

    I'd say it's time to re-org that shitshow.
