I completely agree with you.

Statistically the majority of Africans in no way contribute anything worthwhile to the world and are only a drain on the world, it’s disasterous to allow them to keep breeding.

What should have been happening all along, radical programs to prevent Africans from breeding and extensive programs to encourage all Westerners to have at least four children families.

We historically have always been useful in ALL realms from science to every form of Culture, we historically created Civilisation as we know it. Thus Westerners are of crucial importance to the planet.

The Africans historically have been useful in nothing.

We are needed, they aren’t.

“Hopefully the third world can pull themselves up and advance enough to stop overflowing into the West, “

They lack the basic elements for success. There is no education. The first thing the governing class did for the industrial revolution is educate the masses. They are also exposed to TV and communism instead of Christianity’s work ethic. And, I suspect nutrition and pollution have lowered the average intelligence to values that are not compatible with today’s needs. Other issues are cultural in that work is not, on average, a concern. A friend went to Africa to help the natives build infrastructure. He said the women did all the work and the men sat around in the shade getting high and watching the Christians build them stuff. He said he’d never go back.

The African Continent was 100% better under Colonial Rule.

A criminal policy in my opinion.

“43 percent of the sub-Saharan region’s 900 million people - lived on less than $1.90 a day.”

Sounds like we could outsource our welfare recipients to Africa - we’ll give em $5 a day. When folks are ready to get a job we can think about letting them back in.

This is impossible, they are unable to do anything for themselves. They have always had to rely on white Westerners to make anything for them and to do anything to advance their environments.

It may be a harsh truth but if a population cannot feed itself then outside helpers feeding them will just allow the African population to keep growing beyond their capacity to take care of there own. In the long run we are not doing them any favors and we are certainly not doing ourselves any favors. Just more hungry Africans looking longingly toward Europe and feeling more and more entitled every day.

Even when given an educational process they fail. They are basically unable to be educated to even a standard beyond basic writing and reading.

One can educate them to do menial tasks, but in general that’s as far as it goes.

This is why so many of them who have come to the West are on welfare and/or doing the lowest level jobs.

It’s thus pointless wasting taxpayers money attempting to educate people who are unable to be educated.

I don’t know why they are not promoting the use of the IUD—the Intrauterine Device. It is a birth control method that stays in place for several years and is highly effective. Where is the United Nations on this? This is one project that would do some good for the world.

Very well said. Welfare destroys. Always. I don’t care if you live in Detroit, Africa or Solyndra. Own. Earn. Prosper. The lib world thinks that this is cruel. Newsflash. Leftism is the cruelest stroke of all. It consumes generations of people.

What he said. Like stray cats. The more you feed them the more they breed. The go to the camps because it is not safe out in the woods because of the bad guys. It would be better to kill off the gangs preying on them so they could live in peace and grow their own food.

I know that a group were trying to get Africa to use condoms and they simply couldn’t even understand what they were being told to do.

Ditto with the Ebola thing. They were being told what not to do, how to avoid Ebola, not to go near those with Ebola. Some woman from the WHO was on the BBC and she said that it was difficult to get them to understand what they were being told.

Yes because historically they’re STUPID that’s why. Anyone with even half a brain would be able to understand simple things like Ebola and how to use a condom.

I personally believe that 70% of Africa should have been forcibly sterilised decades ago.

No sterilisation, no aid and that would have been the deal.

Wait a minute...I thought they wrote a song to cure all this.


That sums it up nicely. Well played!

Can't judge by appearance or skin color.

The carbon based humanoid life form you refer to might self identify as a black male.

It’s probably the NWO Plan.

Enact White Genocide, encourage pointless Africans to breed to ridiculous proporations. Flood the West with the Africans, within 40 years, slave labour, £1, $1 or 1 Euro a day for them....no more whites to get paid proper wages.

Result, NWO ultimate fantasy.

One bright spot, and perhaps an example other African nations might look to, has been the economic transformation in Ethiopia.

They’ve had 11 straight years of economic growth, with an average annual GDP increase of 10%+ The key to this growth has primarily been a dismantling of state-own enterprises in favor of privatization, easing regulatory burdens, and sound fiscal policy (attracting foreign investment).

To be sure, Ethiopia is far from a market-driven paradise. Citizens still cannot own land (they can only lease it from the government), and a lot of the other problems associated with the 3rd World still linger. They are charting a path to prosperity, however. It’s the only path, IMHO, that will bring the rest of Africa out of grinding poverty. Capitalism works when it is allowed to work.

Well it did make a bunch of mostly washed-up music performers feel good about themselves for a day...

Comedian Sam Kinison had a more practical suggestion at the time: "Don't take the FOOD to them, take THEM to where the food is!"
