While there are some african countries that are ok w/o any help, there remains a majority chunk that could benefit from help. Whether that help coms from education (sorely needed) or simply money.. anything would be an improvment at this point for many countries there. Africa remains the one black hole on this planet we call Earth when it comes to knowledge and technology. It really is the last obstacle to tackle when it comes to defeating poverty on the massive scale of "world hunger" and the like. While i believe that the tribes and people of africa should be allowed to deploy their own destiny.. there really are millions of people that would benefit from ANY assistance. This call for collective assistance really couldn't have come at a better time. If there ever was a chance to wipe out the evils in humanity.. atleast somewhat.. now is the time. As a country we should start focusing less on Iraq and more on what we can do with the world as a whole. Not in a domination or control sense, but in the sense of assistance and guidance. The way America views foreign aid needs to change drastically. I can only assume that goes for many other wealthy countries. Because up until now, they really have been doing a piss-poor job. Its time we (as a race, human beings, collectively) started working toward the actual betterment of mankind and not just our own interests.

Lets leave the past behind and work for a TODAY that is better for everyone.
