Secretary of State John Kerry has announced that the United States will send $250 million to aid Egypt and it's economy. He also said that if President Mohamed Morsi uses it on economic and political reforms. The potential price tag is $450 million, already including the $250 million. John Kerry is calling it a 'good-faith effort' to help the Egyptian people. To me, this comes as no surprise, since we are the world police. $250 million, or even $450 million may not seem like a lot when it comes to our national debt, now at $16 TRILLION, but we need to worry about ourselves before anyone else.
