The Process
Designations Subject to Judicial Review and Congressional Revocation
Under the statute, designations are subject to judicial review. The Secretary of State made her designations following an exhaustive interagency effort. We have kept an administrative record of each recommendation to the Secretary. Because the records would reveal intelligence sources and methods, they are classified.
The designations expire in two years unless renewed. The law also allows groups to be added at any time following a decision by the Secretary, in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of the Treasury. Designations can also be revoked if the Secretary determines that there are grounds for doing so and notifies Congress. Congress can also pass legislation to revoke designations.

Background
The law responds to concerns about foreign terrorist organizations raising funds in the United States.
Some terrorist organizations have tried to portray themselves as raising money solely for charitable activities such as clinics or schools. These activities have helped recruit supporters and activists and provided support to terrorists.

Congress was quite aware that terrorist organizations might cloak their activities with professions of good works and addressed the matter squarely:


Foreign organizations that engage in terrorist activity are so tainted by their criminal conduct that any contribution to such an organization facilitates that conduct. (Section 301(a)(7)).
Therefore, any contribution to a designated foreign terrorist organization, regardless of the intended purpose, is prohibited by the statute, unless the contribution is limited to medicine or religious materials.

The economy is not in great shape, great shape requires great earnings not cut backs on employment.

Defence can create employment but not long range future profit. Economically speaking or minus emotion it has a very limited benefit to the financial situation of our nation, although it is necessary to defend our nation. If our Nation is not financially solvent enough in the private sector the cost will weigh to heavily on the whole though it is a cost we have to bear.

This cost however unless shared with US by the world is not cheap.
