I have mixed feelings about this news. One one hand the US is trillions of dollars in debt. Cuts need to be made everywhere.
On the other hand 6 million dollars plus all the equipment and manpower has been given to the DR in 2010 yet the drug trafficking increased. I won't even get into the corruption by DR officials. That corruption is like throwing the donated money out the window.
It is a nasty problem that I would like to see solved. It looks like the DR will have to do more of the solving. I am not sure that they want to. If they stop the drugs then what industry can they scam money from?
Personally I would like to see the US keep sending the aid to the DR.
