Why do most people want to help the 3rd world countries before helping their own people?

That's what I've been thinking...
Cold hard truth here.. ok assuming you could donate enough money for a hospital to run for a year, those people will be treated for that year, will have their kids.. and then because there is a complete lack of stability in most of the 3rd world countries the money will run out to pay for the hospital, then more people contract diseases and more people die.. it's not as simple as just donating enough money to feed some kids.. ok kids get fed, they grow up, they have kids who they can't support and will then require more money.
