But a damn can provide power to run a water treatment plant that will prevent their kids from getting diseases. Aid is aid. Period. The reason you provide aid to others is to help them, hence the word ‘aid’.

Also gets into the funding “pool” that the country has. You provide aid for health services and it frees up the money otherwise needed there for the other projects. Unless you simply think the government in question was not going to fund the health services at all anyways.
