I found this story interesting. I've blogged before about the concern that the way U.S. foreign aid programs are structured may damage local economies of the countries they're designed to help by undermining local farmers. (Farm subsidies that send under-priced agricultural products overseas can put farmers in those countries out of business increasing dependency...)
At least one major NGO has refused the food subsidy for this reason.
