The moment people stop thinking like that is the moment humanity really starts to help itself. I understand why you think we have to "take care of our own" first.. you've been indoctrined to think like that from the moment you could watch TV. But, and excuse my hippyness for a second, don't you think that that ideology could be inclusive of the whole human race? I could use the same sentence, but I would be meaning to help the whole human race before worrying about going in to space, building a big military, etc.. We spend so much time worrying about trivial things that we never really help "our own", just the people around us. Why are Americans more important than Africans? If you can answer that with an honest, thoughtful response then i'll be astounded.
I am not "indoctrinated" to think anything. If those people (yeah, I know) have nothing better to do than fuck multiple partners all day, use voodoo rather than science, and spread STD and HIV to each other, then the spread of disease is their own fault. We have people dying in our own country from our worst natural disaster, and it is more important to help them than waste our time preserving stupid, dangerous traditions in backwards, matrilineal, superstitious societies. As I said, they could start by building a goddamn condom factory ?? but I guess that we??re responsible for that also, according to your logic.

Your utopia is not going to happen anytime soon unless the less fortunate are willing to meet us halfway. If we try to interfere anyway, then you??ll say that we are ??exploiting? them ?? or some other excuse to blame the U.S. for other people??s stupidity.

These countries cannot function, to a large degree, because there is no ??family? system in their social stratum. The women have children by multiple men, and the men slack off and support none of them. The best way for these societies to improve would be by starting to put traditional patriarchal values into their young people??s heads ?? but that will get shot down by the wrong-headed ??feminists?, socialistic herd-followers, and multi-cultural proponents.

Ya just can??t win! If we try to help, they stone us. If we lay back, we get blasted. We have enough problems over here, and at least we have the desire to help ourselves.

Official Faults U.S. AIDS Policy He said the AIDS program in Uganda has three main components: abstinence, faithfulness to a sexual partner and condom use. A shortage of condoms in Uganda has developed because both the government of the east African country and its primary donor for HIV prevention, the United States, have allowed condom supplies to dwindle. At the same time, they have allocated an increasing proportion of funding for HIV programs to religious groups that oppose Rating: 5
