The USA under Einseinhower (1957-1960) gave more aid to India than to Pakistan; If Kennedy decided to economically help Pakistan instead of India, it was after the Nehru's visit (November 5-15th 1961), who, already a part of the Non-Aligned Movement, was the 'worst Statesman' that Kennedy has even witnessed, being 'de-connected from reality'. It was not until 1962, because of diverse reasons (Indian forces attacking Goa's Portuguese colonies, buying Soviet's MiG-21, ...), that the USA stopped its pro-India aid policy.
The funny thing is that it was Nehru who was literally begging for the money, because 'he couldn't do without' (read Sarvepalli Gopal's biography on the man.) Ayyub Khan just, naturally, said that this money is given in a war-paradigm against the Soviets, and not freely; thus, the USA had to view Pakistan as a helped partner, not a feed slave.
And 'aid', in a developing-country where feudal system prevails doesn't mean a direct contribution to the nation's wealth; there's a detailed study in the book 'Delivering aid differently: lessons from the field', and that's what is said about Pakistan: '... has historically received large volumes of aid in support of its development into a lower-middle-income country. Yet it has also faced the increasingly difficult task of aid coordination. In 2007 Pakistan received more than 2.2 billion dollars in official development assistance (ODA), ranking the country as the sixth-largest recipient of official aid in the world. This overall sum, however, amounted to only 1.5 percent of gross domestic income, translating into a per capita aid of 14 dollars - much smaller than the amount received by countries with similar levels of income, such as Sudan (55 dollars), Kenya (34 dollars), and Vietnam (29 dollars.)'
Concerning the US aid about WoT specifically, we all know how much they gave us and how much we had to spent.
