FANTASTIC article!!! One of my best friends is from Zaire, and he first told me back around 1990 that a number of African economists were dead set against international aid. But I've never heard it put so plainly and forcefully as this...I'm definitely going to send this to him.
Like I said above, until this appears in the New York Times, nobody who needs to read this will have read it.
Appearing at FreeRepublic is fine, but only the choir sees it. Everyone else can simply ignore it.
Sad, isn't it?
In Christ,
