Take away our medical aid
medical aid= more mouths to feed
more mouths=more food needed
more food needed=more starvation
more starvation=more misery.
Its far better to have one child die in infancy than to have fifty die of starvation or AIDs between the ages of 5 and 18.
I remember reading a doctor who said as much way back in 1956, that medical aid or food was utterly futile and actually destructive until the people themselves evolve and form more intelligent governments and culture.
He was right. Way back in 1956!
Naturally, he was branded heartless and suspected of racism, the catchall method used by folks who don't want to face reality in Africa. The folks who were against aid to Africa were much wiser and compassionate than the bleeding hearts who have no long-term perspective whatsoever and give, because they feel good about it right now.
