I think we should drop all aids aide to Africa. Face it, it's just not working. We spend billions of dollars a year taht goes to waste because the some of the Africans are paranoid and think we're trying to give them aids with the drugs!
Those billions of dollars could be spent somewhere else were it can go to better use such as welfare(which also isn't working), health care, social security and homeland security or just help shrink the deficit.
Actually the best argument for being skeptical about giving this aid is that HIV and Aids in Africa are somewhat dubious. The statistics are all generated by computer models, and for everyone involved there's a huge incentive to exaggerate the problem. I suspect HIV rates are much lower in Africa than we have been led to believe.
People DIE from it...
Indeed. It's interesting (as well as scary and depressing) to see that Opebo and MasterJedi can simply treat other human beings like statistics, and that a few minor problems are immediate justification for denying them help.
Empathy is another thing that separates us from animals. Some people would do well to remember that.
