$375 million… Here we go again. U.S. taxpayers on the hook for another round of ‘coordinated’ bailouts for Greece.

The International Monetary Fund and Greece’s euro zone partners last week approved a second 130 billion euro ($172.15 billion) rescue to keep the debt-choked country afloat through 2014.”   (Reuters March 20, 2012).

“We received 5.9 billion euros from the euro zone and 1.6 billion euros from the IMF,” a finance ministry official told Reuters.

Note 1:  This equates to $2.12 billion (U.S. Dollars) ‘contribution’ from the IMF. The U.S. funds 17.7% of the IMF budget, so the U.S. Government has just ‘given away’ another $375 million to Greece/Europe.

Note 2: The total funding package for Greece, through 2014, is listed above as $172.15 billion. This means that the U.S. Government will be giving away’ significant additional amounts to “keep the debt-choked country [Greece] afloat through 2014.”  

The U.S. economy is currently on a ‘dead crawl’ pace.  Instead of giving our (future) tax dollars away to foreign interests, the U.S. government should be moving to provide direct credit extensions to American families.

America needs the Leviticus 25 Plan.
