The cabinet ministers of Mauritania have voted themselves a 600% pay raise, in order to fight corruption. Yeah, right. The average citizen of that country makes about $40 a month. With the raise, each of the 26 ministers will now get over $3,000 a month. I'm so glad our foreign aid is helping this poor country. Just so you know, Mauritania votes against us in the United Nations only 87 per cent of the time. Naturally, we'll support their ministers' lifestyles. GRRR!
