$30 Million to Afghanistan

What a fabulous idea. Help a government overhaul their legal system. I'm sure western law will help with the religious fanatical right. I'm sure it will also deter the general population from growing and exporting poppies.

Maybe train the cops to arrest people first, then overhaul the justice system. Who are we to impose our version - or anyone elses for that matter - on Afghanistan. Better yet, maybe get rid of the Taliban first, since they are the real justice system in Afghanistan.

Sometimes you have to just stop throwing good money after bad. $30 million could have got a couple homeless people off the subway grates in Toronto.
