Bossanova Bullshit

Despite independent data indicating that it is one of the most successful campaigns worldwide, the US has decided to withdraw $40 million from Brazil's AIDS program (that's about $0.22/Brazil capita). This is because the Brazilian government has failed to officially condemn prostitution.

Meanwhile, under the Ryan White Act, the State of Nevada receives $13 million (approximately $6/Nevada capita) of federal funding for AIDS programs. In Nevada, of course, prostitution is legal and licensed by the state.

I believe that further comment is unnecessary.
