  • U BOTH TALK ALOT OF SHIT

  • read:

    Ishmael by Daniel Quinn

    and watch talk:

    Food Production and Population Growth

  • Beautiful Japanese models at: divinejapanidols[dot]com

  • ahhh he has a mom she looks ok fed why doesnt she give him food would make some since

  • Poor people, I wish there was some economic boom that could boost the job market in turn improving the agriculture in the region producing more jobs, and ultimately eliminating hunger. Only a wish!! :( -TEXAS

  • i feel so heart broken ...

  • If his father is diamond miner it doesn't mean that he would be rich.. only peoples who gets money from diamonds are the boss of the place, probably president of the country and some european or american guys somewhere

  • Why save these peoples lives? I know it sounds cruel and I'll get a million+ thumbs down, but what will happen if they live? This is silly, when you feed them they multiply more only to have more hunger. Countries like that need strict birth laws if they can't support their peoples' needs.

    African culture is greatly outdated and is one of the few places I can see communism being beneficial. Hopefully they'll stop making kids who are destined to suffer... In fact it's better if the weak perish.

  • thumbs up from me

  • At least ONE person understands.

  • So pour I will to donate all money if I win lottery

  • at 1:19 does teh translator have a gold watch?

  • Industriousness doesn't mean industry. I agree with you that they need to develop their own agriculture, but they currently lack the industriousness and organization needed to do it. I don't know what you mean by "jew deceivers." If you mean leftist "land reform" policies, well, those have been miserable failures.

  • Even the smallest help is GREAT.

    So let all offer the little bit we can.

    It will make the difference.

    The pleasure of giving is amasing.

  • why dont you stop filming the starved child and star feeding them

  • pubes

  • thats more like it

  • keep up the good work

  • That mother looks well fed. I think she's eating all the food and forgetting about her child.

  • im enriched biotch!

  • The Nwo is causing this Famine, they do not want the population to grow. They want to deplete world population 90% including us via swine flu vaccination obama about to sign treaty in december signing over soveriegnty of USA and creating NWO in december: watch?v=MlTagSZPm7o this is true I've read the documents. Still skeptical ? Read for yourself links to docs on side of vid

  • if you make babies and cant fucking feed them! you are a murderer!

  • Oooh yaaa. (orgasm)

  • help the poor and hungry people! stop fucking breeding them as rabbits

  • In the Sudan, Islam has killed over 3 million Christians and stolen their goods. Their greed for wealth and their disdain for other faiths...perpetuates the problem. Look what religion is in "power" and that will shed light on a lot of things!!

  • We as people in developed nations throw away enough food to feed these people. The problem has never been one of availability, it is clearly the politics of man that keep people starving. Politics and greed.

  • "The problem has never been one of availability"

    Are you serious? See Norman Borlaug.

    "Politics and greed"

    All I'm hearing is socialism and bs.

  • Green Revolution... hmm... so many implications to that statement.

    If you only hear socialism when you hear "politics and greed", go get a proper education.

  • Comment removed

  • I have a degree from a notable university. What do you have 21 year old? If by proper education you mean an indoctrination, then no thank you.

  • The thing is, this people used to be hunters, but then the white man came, started killing all of the elefants and gazelle for fun, and then proclamed them to be indangered. White people then taught theese afrikans the white way of living, gave them crops to rase and stuff, but Afrika is not Europe, the climate is different, you have dry seasons there, and in general harsh hot weather, where crops have trouble growing. In short theese people were bomboozled, kinda like indians in America.

  • "this people used to be hunters"

    All people used to be hunter-gatherers. Huge populations can not be supported by hunting and gathering.

    "bomboozled"

    Bombs and booze. Is that the secret combination you need create a mind that comes up with this nonsense?.

  • My point still stands. Africa was going its own rote of developement, untill the european powers came, occupied allmost all of the continent, and enforced theyr own industreous ways upon the african peoples. Then, when they left, Africa was left torn in to multitude of unstable countrys, each one pulling in theyr own dirrection. Are you going to say that this is nonsense too, as in this never happened?

  • "Africa was going its own rote of developement"

    Being stuck in prehistory in perpetuity doesn't strike me as a path of development.

  • "enforced theyr own industreous ways upon the african peoples"

    English doesn't appear to be your first language. Are you sure you typed what you were actually thinking? Industriousness, or a lack thereof, is definitely a major contributing factor to their plight.

  • Yes, and yes. The lack of it, is because they were denied the chance to develop them selfs, and instead had to work for the colonies that occupied Africa and enforced theyr own wievs on life on to theese natives. You didnt answer my question by the way...

  • "You didnt answer my question by the way"

    To give you a quick answer, yes, what you're saying is nonsense. I will you a better answer when I have more time. It takes a bit of typing and time to cut through posts influenced by mercury laden churrasco.

  • fucken africans fucking up again, dont be having sex you stupid faggot bitches

  • why are the children ONLY starving?

  • cuz African fathers are walking out on the family, just like African-Amaricans do here. Sorry it sounds bad, but thats what is happening over there. The sins of the father....

  • and its not just a high sex drive most of these people are married before they "DO IT" their tribe frowns upon it if they aren't . and lets not foget some of these women are raped and the choice to be pregnant is ripped from them literaly and figuratively speaking. while i agree we need to help our country in order to be able to help others. i think its more their goverment taking the money they work for for those diamonds and not giving them their fair share or even enough to live.

  • how quickly we forget that is was these people who helped in buildoing america and making it what it is today.America is constantly in need of aide from other countries so why cant we help them too.should we all be selfish?then we will never be united. there will never be world peace. its not just they reproduce more then what they can afford there goverment holds back on these hard working individuals they cant afford the care needed to properly terminate,prevent a pregnancy, or disease

  • "these people who helped in buildoing america"

    Please explain this pile of rubbish.

    "care needed to properly terminate,prevent a pregnancy, or disease "

    I wasn't aware that third parties were needed to prevent pregnancy or disease. I don't mean this as a joke. If using a condom or abstinence is too difficult a hurdle for a person to overcome, can you really expect that such a person when joined by millions of others of the same ilk can become the foundation of a prosperous society?

  • What if that was you? That child did not ask to be born just to STARVE to death. You know what it is really like to starve? Lemme shed a little light....your body scrapes at itself eating away at every last fudging scrape of anything it can take and then literally starts to eat itself. It takes time; so seemingly endless suffering like it says you are so weak you just sit WRITHING in pain like nothing is wrong after you can no longer speak. Your not human to think you should not care.

  • It is absolutely horrible. He knows it, and I never will. If he grows up, he will likely give birth to many more just like himself. He will knowingly condemn many to his same fate. That's the biggest sin. Rice and beans will do nothing more than make you feel better and help line the pockets of some government or U.N bureaucrat.

  • I 100% agree with you. Why the fuck should we have to care about and for them, when our own country is going down the shitter. Why dont we worry about ourselves first, instead of poor africa. Fucking bullshit!

  • Think what your saying.. What if you were born there? What if you were starving in Africa? What would you do?

  • You're right. America is bankrupt because of the doo-gooders in our Federal Gov't who steal our money thru taxation and then hand it to all the overpopulated countries of the world. Notice, too, that the FEDS stole our money through taxation and then handed it to the companies in America who caused the financial meltdown ?? The bad guys not only kept their jobs... but got bonus money from OUR funds.... all thanks the ignorant Feds.

  • Well fucking said, Thank you

  • OMG way too much human suffering in this world to spend BILLIONS on things like sending rockets to hit the moon.

    We need to focus on what's really important, each other!

  • At least rockets to the moon benefit our own technology workforce and scientific knowledge base which benefits us as a whole culture.

    But NOBODY gave the ignorant Feds permission to play the world cop and get into foreign wars every chance they get while China sucks up all our jobs. We're in a recession and spending OUR money while the news yesterday said China's economy is advancing "at a blistering pace."

    Thanks to our ignorant FEDS.... who I despise.

  • Heard even China is feeling a recession.

    This depression is global

  • You need to check yesterday's business news. China's latest economic numbers show it advancing at a "blistering pace" ..... while our ignorant Feds continue to bankrupt us as a people and country. AND notice that China isn't wasting its own resources on foreign wars that are none of its business?????? They laugh at our Feds for the ignorance of playing world cop while they advance.

  • Thanks 4 the correction.

    But if we as a country do not care about places like the poor & oppressed PPL like the starving in Sudan who will?

    Eventually what goes around comes back to either help or haunt us.

  • If the ignorant Feds had not been giving away our BILLIONS AND BILLIONS FOR THE LAST SEVERAL DECADES to poor countries, your statement would make sense. But the USA has done far, far more than its share of helping the poor.

    Our country is bankrupt. And the Feds and public employees did it to us.

  • That & BIG OIL.........

  • Really? BIG OIL bankrupted America ? It wasn't the Feds who steal our money each year through taxation and GIVE IT AWAY ????

    Tell us how "big oil" is responsible for bankrupting our country..... and do include the FACT that the retailers of petroleum products in the USA buy something near 80% of their product from MIDDLE EASTERN OIL CARTELS who hate America?

  • @PantheraAtrox

    Lol, stfu, hippie.

  • @mcownagedapwnage , try putting yourself in their shoes, but oh wait,....they don't even have any.

    But can you see past your own self?

  • SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT WHEN YOU SEE PICS OF FUCKING champs elysees

  • why is everyone attacking each other on the text comment. shut up and help one a another stop attacking each other and pray for peace and good and end all poverty and hunger and war on earth !!!

  • Pray for peace? To who?!?!

  • Pray for peace? To use that statement, you must believe in the Bible. And if you had read the Bible you'd know that Jesus (God) himself said that "the poor will always be with us." If Jesus said the poor will always be here, and if the Bible describes that the end times are already predestined, your hope for peace & end to poverty & hunger don't make sense.

    The USA is bankrupt because our idiots in Washington DC have given away our resources and wealth. But why would THEY care..

  • All they care about is their deep pockets which one day will not feed them.

    As for the poor, this gives those with faith a window of opportunity to show their worth.

    We are to love our neighbor as we love ourselves.

  • You bypassed the text I quoted in that "the poor will always be with us" ....

    You cannot wish away poverty. You cannot complain away poverty. You cannot, as you clearly want to do, steal money from American citizens through taxation and give it away thinking that makes everything okay.

    Poverty is caused by overpopulation by humans who refuse to stop breeding. People like you are too weak to admit that.

  • I agree with "indanske" immorality is not only committing an adultery or infidelity. We can call also "immoral" those parents that has not capability to support the nutrition,education and other basic needs of his/her children but still making a child, just because of lust and sexual urge only. When this people learn their mistakes? For god sake WAKE UP!

  • I find some of these comments offencive... Have these people ever herd of the blood diamond traid... People loose limbs over that stupid shit when... you go to your chap;e to get married Thank The Biggest Name in diamonds for this shit!!! No Not All... Just a contributeing factor in quilety of life here...

    May The team In Canada WIN!!! Damm Thats Sad!!! See you later

  • the rich fucks who own youtube want you middle class idiots to feed these starving people while they keep their pockets to themselves, dont play this bullshit charity game because you never know where your money really goes

  • I wonder if Kojo Annan is still in the food charity game?

  • They are useless creatures in Africa, but the ones we brought over here sure do create a lot of jobs...........mostly in law enforcement.

  • dsafavfgsegbedasefgvasqwfvqaws­fawqs

  • a similar thing is happening around the world, but Africa is worse.

  • None of this would happen if humans weren't such stupid animals. We wouldn't have a bad economy if all of you could just learn to love each other. I wish I could help these people, but I'm too busy worrying about my own stance. It's fucking pathetic. Stop beguiling each other, and stop being dumbasses. I am so tired of seeing crap like this. You want the candid answer? You're fucking stupid, primordial animals. It's sad.

  • Education is highly needed in underdeveloped countries in order to erase some hunger problems, mainly the families should be able to know if they can have a son or not. I think all countries should contribute, It´s 3/4 of DNA of Mankind that is at risk.

  • see like i said before hannah montana that dumb bitch is making millions and billions of dollars for stupid music she makes when we can use it on this helping stariving people

  • hello mster

  • its not only happen in africa..as u see the comment above,rass shouldnt be an issue =).in indonesian,my country also we face the same problem about this.many poor people outside there,if you say a bad thing then i hope someday ull be in the same place like them when u cant choose to be born in which country or rich father =).thanks god u still have food everyday =)

  • khlkh

  • Maybe they should stop having kids.

  • stop having kids...and disapear from earth??

  • That's exactly what I meant. You must be the only intelligent person on the internet.

  • *cough* as i mentioned, birth control is another issue africa has. most organizations that help africa teach sex education whenever and where ever they can, and pass our birth control, but africa is a big place to cover and abstinence only just doesnt work.

  • see! the father of one child working but dont give anything to give food? but when it comes to sex he gives everything huh.. fuck! stupid!

  • very sad

  • since i was a kid... i use to see these situations throughs pictures on emirates airline's donation papers distributed on evry passenger...

    hmmmmm... i have to share this vid to evryone.. thnx for posting!

  • The saddest thing about starving children is that we are allowing them to live in the first place. Too many people in this world, I say we start culling the herd. It's the same principle in hunting permits: the animals are controlled so they don't deplete their limited resources. Who's going to come along and control the human animal, hmm? OBAMA CAN!

  • im upset !!! why they breed them......i am also poor but with little brain not to produce more ...

  • another issue Africa has is birth control. a lot of organizations that are out to help Africa do a lot of sex education and handing out birth control. besides having too many children to be able to feed properly, Africa has lots of HIV and AIDS issues... so getting info and birth control out there is really important.

  • Its the US that are harming the Africans.

  • i thInK Goverment should focus to the black peaople. while balancing on white people....there more hungry THAN US....ryt??

  • Race shouldn't be an issue.

    Aid simply needs to be directed the people most in need.

  • OMG!!!! i don't know what to say

    feel so sorry for all those people and children....... why African is so poor like that ?

  • few resources, terrible leaders, horrendous economy

  • No see thats where you're wrong. Africa has tons of resources. The real problem is CORRUPTION! Plain and simple!

  • fair enough. i did mention terrible leaders... corruption is kind of combined with that.

  • Yeah the Leaders are the ones who make that continent a shithole. Nigeria, tons of oil, most of west African minerals and hard woods, huge labor force. But the people never see the money, just the Leaders, and of course their armies! sad sitiuation my friend!

  • potatose, plant lots of potatoes. Apparently, Africa is the only continent where they haven't taken off yet.

  • i dont think africa has the right climate to grow potatoes in. not enough moisture.

  • It seems like the rest of the world has turned its back to africa and countries like bengladesh. We need to stop caring so much about petty things and try to help our fellow humans. But there are too many countries out there not willing to help because they see it as not being there problem. There HAS to be something we can do.

  • all the blacks living in america should watch this video then thank the slave masters from saving them from this life.

  • Don't you even give a damn?

  • USA, RUSSIA AND EUROPE SELL GUNS and arrange local wars to make profit , as always did on past!!!!

  • Survival of the fittest. Let's face it, Negroids and Capoids are the stupidest races on the planet, unable to develop their own writing system or to create to create many advance civilisations. They had not seen a wheel until the white men came to Africa. They are designed to live in a primitive tribe rather than a civilisation.

  • yes....but they're near powerful than the caucasoids now.

    plus they can't get skin cancer and the numbers of black politicians, entertainers, and corporates are now increasing.

    They ARE surviving, they ARE growing.

    You're just a communist what do you know?

    your ideology has already been to near extinction and you have no chance on overtaking the bourgeoisie AGAIN.

  • Yep... in fact they are so powerful that they are continuously begging for help

  • you're just afraid they might take over.

    commie scum

    i spit on people like you

    we have conquered you already and you still persist on your ideologies?

    your kind have never contributed anything to the world and the countries who adopt your ideology are a bunch of weaklings.

    China, Laos, Cuba, etc.

    Arrogant poor people.

  • "you're just afraid they might take over"

    Ofc I am afraid... they are taking over by using illegal immigration. They are more prone to crime by nature, so every non-liberal sane European should worry.

    Some people call me a communist, others call me a nazi ...

    Anyway, maybe I shall remind you that the contribution of the communist countries is just huge: e.g. helicopter, artificial heart, artificial lungs, artificial satellites, first man in space, first space station ... etc.

  • no race is prone to anything by nature; thats racism in one of its basic forms. what determines how you act is who youre around growing up, where you live, the culture youre raised in, the situations youre in.

  • What's your opinion about the asian countries then?

    they're not as barbaric as the blacks, arabs,

    etc.

    you're obviously not a nazi since nazism is all about dictatorship through means of conquering all opposing countries.

  • oh how i wish i could slice your balls off and shove them up your ass. and make you eat your own shit untill you die. dang that would be quit amazing dont you agree?

  • I'm so sorry for you... you are unable to distinguish between real and virtual life

  • lol u want a cookie?

  • Fool. You can't even spell civilization right.

    Get your shit together you dumbass racist bastard!!

  • Europe uses the real English aka British English... thus we write civilisation not civilization.

    Btw, why am i a racist?

  • not a positive thought but is there one western country who wants to have to deal with a developing Africa ?They stay poor while the only one getting rich are the companies sending tons of food and medicine while the aid in infrastructure is almost zero.

  • why did he translate at 1:11?? ahaha?

  • maybe somebody here can help me out on my question, if these people are starving , how do the womwn even have children in the first place?

  • same reason you mom have you sex

  • am not sure on your age, do you even understand my question? I take it no. if these people are eating so little they can't support themselfs, how does the womens body support a pregnency?

  • A solution? Sell the fucking vatican like Sarah silverman proposed! And tax churches!

    I only pointed out how healthy the mother and father looks. That baby is a cadaver. Why is that mother so healthy looking???

    the dad has a gut for crying out loud! A gut from too much food...or maybe it's worms. I don't know. but she looks healthy!

  • That won't help west africa one bit. This country, Sierra Leone, has been devastated by years of civil war, environmental disasters, economic degradation, and corruption. The US could pump billions into Sierra Leone and have it all go into some official's pocket.

  • How the hell are you going to say that about those people? Do you even have a heart? Just because your well off doesn't give you the right to degrade those who aren't.

  • How would they deserve to be suffering? How would you like to be starved?

  • some people are just as fucked up as you can get.

  • hidden hunger wants to eat anything

  • From the same planet:Sad to find countries spending billions on destruction and claim modernization, caring for their animals while their same species in the planet in this shape!!!!!!

    unexplainable behavior!!!!!!!!

  • It's called defense; if the nation did not do that lunatics would take over. Sierre Leone has been ravaged by civil war just as many other undeveloped regions. Money is simply paper; worthless. It' worth something because the US actually develops technology & other things that are worth something; how much has sierre leone contributed to the world? Problem w/that nation is political instability that does not allow the people to prosper; as soon as someone makessomething thugs take overzimbabwe

  • God Bless America, where there's a McDonald's On Every Street And An Abortion Clinic on every corner

  • Teach these people about "SELF ESTEEM"

    THESE PEOPLE LACK THE FIGHTING SPIRIT TO PROGRESS IN LIFE.......ASK THEM TO USE THEIR BRAINS.......IF U FALL PITY EVEN AFTER 500 YEARS THEY ARE GOING TO BE POOR......AND THESE PEOPLE MAKE US SAD

  • this is some fucked up shit. no kid deserves this. they need to stop having kids. Fucking Learn to Pull out u stupid muther fuckers. if they were raped Fuck they're a fucked up people.GOD help them.

  • How did you fit so much hate, intolerance, and sheer stupidity into four sentences?

    These people have nowhere to go. They cant just hop on a plane and leave, or drive away from this place.

    They're dealing with the life they're dealt. Your dumb ass would be dead in a matter of days out there.

    Have compassion for people who live entirely different lives than you. Educate yourself and try to understand what's going on before you spew such a clusterfuck of nonsense again.

  • ااااااااااااااااا

  • Based on my knowledge of science and sociology, the solution isn't to throw money at the problem and expect it to go away. That will add to the problem.

    The problem is that people in Africa continue to breed like animals. Unless that problem is first addressed, throwing money at the problem will solve nothing. In fact, more food with the new money will just encourage them to breed even more, thus worsening the situation.

    To break the bad habit circle, deliver sexual education first.

  • they should spend more money on condoms and give them away to people there

  • wow so your saying shadmotivation, that you should just let them die and that'll teach em! Learn from their mistakes? these people are doing this to help people who can't help themselves.

  • It's funny...black men love to fuck as many women as possible no matter what country they live in. They also love to "walk away" from the women they impregnate.

  • The problem is that these people lack education. It is simple enough for us to say that "they should have thought of the consequences before having sex", but these people do not have proper sex education like many of us do. Indeed, I do agree that the country is not helping it's own citizens. However at the end of the day, we all still live on the same earth.

  • The video opens up, " .... The saddest thing about starving children...."

    THE TRUTH: ignorant parenting and breeding like animals is the cause of hunger throughout the world.

    THE TRUTH: doo-gooders pretend that by sniveling and making videos and writing op-ed articles for media will make the problem go away. IT WON'T.

    Message to the doo-gooders: start admonishing the masses to NOT have children the cannot feed. If you're too stupid to understand that solution, YOU are part of the problem.

  • I agree 100% robert. This shit has been going on since since...well forever in Africa. They need to "ifx" all females at birth for the next 20 years.

    People that have children with no means of support are worthless to the community they live in.

  • I totally agree with you 100% on that one. Money is a tool used to stay alive no doubt about that, but it's not the answer to everything, like you said. And I also agree on the fact that it's because of overpopulation that this starvation crisis is going about. And if people were a bit more educated, I'd bet that this world would be a much better place than it already is. And to hell with all of the people out there who say that they don't have enough in life when in reality, they do. sigh...

  • :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

  • but for this current years i cerebrate or come to think that indeed they will require support from other nation or from numerous nation for them to be given care and treatment of the said hunger and diseases but if they continously not using their own head they will continously suffer from the said problem i know that as a human with any color can be inventive and can find solution within their ownterritory and its simply to say to be a man like creative and inventive they have all the source

  • Thats not going to magically kick in, as poverty and hunger in Africa was around before you were born and if nothing changes will be the same after you are gone.

    And the sad cold truth of the matter is that every starving child that you save is likely to have on average about seven more children, and they will all be undernourished. So you save them, and they each have seven children and they each have seven children.

    Six generations later and you've "saved" about 10K starving people.

  • africa is big and also their forest is big and also their are multitude of animals the are source for food and if they seek they will procure answer of the said hunger and also they can find treatment of any diseases by seeking plants and trees that is needful for the treatment of those kind of diseases

  • They are doing that, but again, that is the problem as there are simply having far more children than the environment can support.

    Since 1950 nearly 75% of tropical forests in west Africa are gone and Nigeria, Kenya, Burundi, Cote D'Ivoire and Madagascar lost more than 90% of their original forest. 

    Archaic farming practices are also damaging fertile lands leading to reduced output every year. But what do we do, we look the other way at the outrageous birth rate and just dump in more food.

  • the united nations or unicef will perdure to help them and also government and other private first will also maintain to give them succour or help inorder to recover or recuperate being destitute or to recover from suffering and also african goverment and their people will use their head on how to find solution within their territorial problem in connection or to the people contacted with this kind of problem and african people must also be creative and inventiveforthemfindsolutionan­dseek

  • Simply put, not only is dumping more food on the population a bandaid, but it is unsustainable due to the exponential population increase. At some point Africa needs to be taught to feed itself and get its population size under control, perhaps with something similar to China's one-child policy.

    So food is the symptom, but the PROBLEM is sex. Raise funds for family planning, AIDS centers, and free condoms and voluntary sterilizations. The environment cannot sustain unchecked pop. growth.

  • ssssssssssssssssss

  • G8 allocates billions (last year $60 billion) in food aid to Africa, a fraction of the billions donated by the dozens of charity organizations. This has been going on for decades. Before 1950, Africa was an exporter of food, but currently 1/3rd of all grain is imported to feed the exploding population size. Currently Africa has the highest birth rate in the world, and while only 13% of the world population will account for 34% of the world's population increase over the next 50 years.

  • this father that works but will not help his childern, should have his balls cut off, this way he can't make any more.

  • Thats funny how they over populate and then expect us to help... Think logically, think of consequence, at least wrap a paper bag or something around your dick so you wont get aids, or have 10 children, when you cant even support a child. I feel bad for them, bad the sad thing is thats what you get when you dont think out side the box

  • Over population results in hunger and starvation. Starvation results in a drop in population. This results in an eventual balance and no starvation. Feeding the starving without improving the food supply in kind in a sustainable fashion prolongs the suffering and starvation. Feeding the starving is cruel and counter productive.

  • Why is is always "The West" who should "do something?"

    Forty years of hundreds of $Billions of dollars in "foreign aid" and it never ends.

    *When* are these countries going to get up off their asses and solve their own problems? Why aren't *they* held to account?

    It's not the job of U.S. Taxpayers to help them to double their population.

    And what happens when they do double their population, *more* "foreign aid?"

    This is insanity.

    Let Nature take is course.

  • because the US always stick their noise in other countries business that why ! the US made went to Africa and force black people to be their slave back in the day, so now they had to pay it back and it will never end. but its good now because the US is own by the CHINA now.lol

  • the slaves were brought to the united states by slave traders. south american countrys took way more slaves then the U.S ever did. the afrikan government sold the slaves in the first place.

  • the US always think their better than others so is only right that the US go around the poor countries and help them out.

  • My answer: Poverty Bonds

  • So from when this vid came on youtube until now this comment 302,400+ died with in the last 21 days, and this can be fixed any day Logically. U cant teach a man how to fish if u taken his Fishing pole, Hook, and worm.! We humans are so sucked into security and forgot why we are here.
