So anyway, this might sound a bit mean...

What i dont understand is these "starving" children get tons of cash. Also why the heck would you have a child if you know its going to starve to death so stupid.
 
Ship them over a couple of million crates of condoms! What truly disturbs me is they know exactly what kind of life their child is in for, yet the selfish ****ers still procreate. Seriously where is the sense of bringing another life into a guaranteed hell on earth life like that?

Infant mortality and the need for children as a workforce. Honestly, it's like some of you can't even read.

You aren't allowed to call people idiots and morons by the way (I should know :p).

How would you go about solving these problems in Africa then?
 
Not chasing white farmers off the land allowing once fertile and productive land to become arid and infertile would usually be a good place to start.

Education, infrastructure investment, debt reduction, modern agriculture programs, water programs, Changes in foreign trade restrictions, Opening foreign and domestic markets to African producers, stop buying up African Farmland for biofuels, and so on..... there are hundreds of ways to help Africa help itself.

They also have hundreds of problems, least of all government corruption and warfare.

yeah send your money to pay good wages to white people then barely anything goes to the kids and african family to help them sustain and increase a population which land couldn't sustain. Save 1 child, then watch 5 of his children die.

We are helping to increase infant mortalities.
 
from what i can see most of africa survive fine, wasnt it drought thats been causing a lot of the people to suffer ? really not sure, what i'd really like is for africa to run its self, not stick up a kids face full of flys all over my tv, we send over plenty of aid, probably more than any other country, maybe..

i just searched "everyday life in africa" and this is the first pic to pop up..

i dont understand at all why they always show a africans kids face, how about they, for a change start showing a white charver 3 yr old kid with dirt on its face and ask us to text a mobile number that takes 10 quid off you..

not that it would work, africans arent known for helping other countrys
 
The worst thing is just how little money from the monthly donations actually goes to the "Starving Children".

Lots of children are the ticket to survival in poorer regions of the world. When everyone else is struggling to put food on their own tables then it really is about family. There's no sick pay or government aid so if you get ill then you need a system to support you. Funnily enough they also can't see into the future to foresee the global increase in the cost of food, terrible droughts or many other things that these people have absolutely no control over but still suffer the consequences.

These starving kids don't get tons of cash as you put it. They get given enough food to stop them from starving. I really don't see a problem with that. I do think that there's isn't enough focus on addressing the issues that actually result in nations of starving people though.

Brilliant
 
This reminds me of what happened the other day.

I was sitting at home minding my own business watching the TV when there was a knock at the door. There was a young lady there and she explained to me that she was collecting clothes for the starving children in Africa. Instantly and in my most condecending voice i replied.

`If they are starving my clothes certainly wont fit them` and shut the door.
