...reporting and subsequent tax accounting could easily be done just like reporting taxable in interest from bank savings accounts: the recipient of the free lunch tells to the generous lunch purchaser his or her social security number In order for the business to deduct the "necessary and proper" expense, the business would have to record and report the recipient's 9 digit social security number. At the end of the year the recipient would get a form similar to the W 2 or 1099 tax form which shows the dollar amount of free lunches, or free airfares, or free dinners...

The aid he offers is merely a rhetorically; generous disguise for his primarily military approach to the region's problems. Based on faulty economics and a selective reading of history, the President's economic initiatives are worse than useless to our southern neighbors as they struggle to overcome their poverty...
