considering how much aid this country gets each year from all over the world you really would think that by now they would have got their act together wouldnt you  |
The question of aid is a tricky one ... if they don't get it, the poor sods at the bottom of the heap are in a mess ... if they do get it, the rich and powerful take the cream and the poor sods get a cup of skim milk .... and most of the aid from the US is military aid, stuff that doesn't go well between two slices of bread .... but there again, there's no bread. It's a terrible situation ... I think that reading Romeo Dallaire's "Shake Hands with The Devil" has made me a little more sensitive to what is going on in that sad continent.
