my comment was made dead for backing up the claim that US funding to the Ukrainian government pays for Ukrainian government salaries. Hardly conspiriatorial and completely what you'd expect the money to be doing if you are trying to help a country not collapse. Nonetheless, I get downvoted and flagged because I didn't google it for people. Maybe they think that all the money sent goes to buying Eee PC's so the children of Ukraine can learn to read and write good.
