After watching this, I've realized how much poverty there is in Africa. You don't need to be famous and have a huge house to be rich. As long as you have food, shelter, and clothing, you're rich. These people don't have enough to survive. This is so sad. There's no such thing as poor people in America. Only is Africa there's so much poverty. :( I feel like crying, I'm so guilty! Wanting this and that after I'm already lucky enough to have a family and roof over my head and bread on the table.

It's so sad... Even if they're black and some of us are white, it doesn't matter (not being racist) These are all our brothers and sister, god created them. If every preson would die we would have less and less family. Even my neighbor who I never knew had been taken away to a hostpitak because she passed away, I cried. It's so sad seeing your family die like that. I know they're not the most important people in your life, but what god created, we need to take care of.

Why is South Africa and other countries in Africa abounding in growth and wealth and they are not required to help their own neighboring countries with aid?? Have you seen photos of the wealth of Africa? Maybe they should be the ones held accountable first.

1) This world was never meant to be paradise 2.0, it is a place of trials and tribulations. There is night and there is day, some are rich while others are poor. So you get a mixture of good and bad.

2) This extreme poverty that you see is mostly man-made. Africa sits on some valuable resources yet it is the poorest continent in the world due to corruption, uneven distribution of wealth, dictators that are kept in power because they serve foreign interests.. the list is long.

To those who say that the person responsible for a tragedy like this is God and flaunt it, I can only ask which God is this that kills crowds, including many followers of his doctrine, and says He is benevolent?
