guess you missed this: "development aid weakens the local markets everywhere and dampens the spirit of entrepreneurship".
or "Development aid is one of the reasons for Africa's problems"
or "it has to be the Kenyans themselves who help these people"
or "It [no more investment from the industrialized countries] would force us to improve our own infrastructure"
or "If they [the Germans] really want to fight poverty, they should completely halt development aid"
and this gem "it's [AIDS infection] only about one million." only about a million, what? a million people aren't signifigant? they don't deserve help?
ridiculous.
