Who else thinks foreign aid actually HARMS Africa..?

These kooks might actually be onto something.

They’re wrong, but...somehow right.

It does and it doesn't. Much of it ends up in the warlords/oppressive leaders' hands, so yea. But, what does get to the general populace tends to be consumed and then gone. There's no planning for the future, no saving up $$ to buy fertilizer or big items to aid in farming. Much of life is all about the family, and the here-and-now. Aid helps temporary, but as soon as the aid is gone, it's back to the dirt for everybody
