Yes, though it's unclear USAID is fit for that purpose considering it also funds civil unrest and regime change so some might say is a jerk that no one likes. But questions of its effectiveness and efficiency aside, none of that answers my question about US economic dominance. Why is USAID very important when US economic dominance is high.
I was specifically wondering about that particular part of the comment by the original poster, it just seems quite interesting to me what the connection there is.
