Hahaha. It was in response to this: "That was a very ignorant comment . Those are the only moments of pleasure (sex) in a horrific life of born to sentenced torture" because I didn't have anything nice to say.
Why is it just the kids dying of starvation? The parents aren't starving. It is a culture that would eat a bowl of rice while their starving children watch.
Why Africa Is Still Starving:
"Over time, sustained food aid creates dependence on handouts and shifts focus away from improving agricultural practices to increase local food supplies. Ethiopia exemplifies the consequences of giving a starving man a fish instead of teaching him to catch his own. This year the U.S. will give more than $800 million to Ethiopia: $460 million for food, $350 million for HIV/AIDS treatment — and just $7 million for agricultural development. Western governments are loath to halt programs that create a market for their farm surpluses, but for countries receiving their charity, long-term food aid can become addictive. Why bother with development when shortfalls are met by aid? Ethiopian farmers can't compete with free food, so they stop trying. Over time, there's a loss of key skills, and a country that doesn't have to feed itself soon becomes a country that can't. All too often, its rulers use resources elsewhere — Ethiopia has one of Africa's largest armies."
Same reason they won't work here.
Do we need to discuss why they are ate up with AIDS over there or can you slower folks figure out it is the same reason?
