The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA), a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will pay $2.6 million in U.S. tax dollars to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job.
This is ridiculous on a few levels. First of all, what good will "drinking resposibly" do to curb HIV infection? You can't transmit the virus over a vodka martini. Maybe they should use the money to get the women out of prostitution.
Second, why are prostitutes in China getting our money. Are there prostitites in the US that might benefit from this give away?
I also curious what kind of "field observations" there will be.
Why does it take millions of dollars to teach hookers how to make a magarita and hold their liquor?
