This kind of says it all, doesn't it?  While our economy is stuck in neutral, and stripping first gear, and with hundreds of billions of dollars in deficits as far as we can see, we are trying hard to spend $2 million we don't have to improve labor conditions in another country.  Does this mean that some Congress-critter's progeny has some scheme cooked up to work on labor matters in Georgia and they need public bid cover?
