If it weren't for them, the tech advancement in the West would be nearly non-existent. It's an eco-system of wealth redistribution - both sides require the others present state to exist. We take their resources and provide next to nothing in return.
Of course African's would "die" for my lifestyle. I am part of the society that has effectively stolen from them. Who wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of profit?
There is no doubt that 3rd world countries have advanced due to technology provided by the West. But they have not advanced in proportion to the work they produce whereas the West has advanced beyond the work it has produced. This is the nature of moving manual labor to countries that do not have our employment regulations and are governed by despots, who work directly with the Western corporations and Western governments to ensure their own mutually satisfying profit.
Essentially all of the technology that has been provided to 3rd world countries is specifically to maximize the ability for the Western corporation to earn money off the resources of those countries. It most certainly is not the good will you would have me believe.
Why you hold no hostility towards yourself and the society you excuse and promote, while your Caucasian brethren continue to rape and limit 3rd world countries (I'm assuming you're white, of course) is beyond me.
And no, I am not black. That's just an avatar.
