For fiscal year 2012, the United States budgeted $461 million in foreign aid to Uganda, keeping its standing as the largest donor to the East African country. Many analysts have alleged that much of that money never reached its intended targets since corruption is widespread in Uganda.
But Uganda is only one example in Africa where US tax dollars are being used to prop up regimes that treat their gay minorities with injustice and brutality. Kenya, for example, received over $1 billion in assistance. However, like Uganda, under Kenyan law, consenting sex acts between adult males are illegal and carry a maximum penalty of 14 years' imprisonment, except 21 years in certain aggravating circumstances.
Homosexuals in Kenya are often stigmatized by health care providers. Gay men and women often face "arbitrary arrest, are often detained at the police stations, subjected to torture and unnecessary harassment by the police who extort money from them and are only released after bribing their way out. They also suffer sexual abuse from the arresting officers."
At least, the Kenyan government is making the right noises.
Not so in Uganda. It is merely pocketing the money.
Added to this, US evangelists played a kill role in stirring up homophobic hatred there and professed shock and horror when the Uganda parliament drafted the "Kill the Gay" bill.

Except in this case, it's not space but the nation and it is not garbage, only trashy thoughts.

Actually this information has been around for years but it is just one step away from trying to find a way to prevent gay babies which is not only absurd but insulting.
