30 years of benign neglect is plenty of time to drift far from any initial mission you once had. There was a time when the focus of USAID was Disaster Relief, Fighting Poverty, and Promoting Democracy before losing sight of that noble mission. And making matters worse is their arrogant defiance of being help accountable for their decisions.
Marco Rubio, acting Administrator of USAID, speaking in El Salvador on Monday, put it this way,
"They think their master is the globe and not the United States. The goal always has been to reform it, but now we have rank insubordination... Their basic attitude is that we don't work for anyone. We work for ourselves and no agency of government can tell us what to do."
