This video is funny, and funny foreign aid jokes don't come up very often. Just for that it would be worth posting.
At risk of taking the joke too seriously, I would like to point out that the US government does not give foreign aid in the way described here (random amount of money sent for whatever the recipient country wants to do). Well, not in the vast majority of cases, anyway. A few years ago, Slate wrote a good, general guide to how the system works.
