Why don't starving africans move by the coast? - GoFuckYourself.com

AkiraSS · 07-03-2005, 12:02 PM

Where they can fish and stuff?

Also, is it just me, or from all the money collected worldwide for starving africans, only bits get delivered from that aid to them?

johndoebob · 07-03-2005, 12:16 PM

The money never gets there, all the foundations that take donations are either more or less big scams or some dictator, military, tribe leader or foreign organization / helper in africa takes the money.

Africa is reigned by chaos and a few who take it all, beside the areas where mainly white people live like parts of south africa.

Donation business is big business run by hypocrites and scammers.

chodadog · 07-03-2005, 12:25 PM

The only place in Africa that i would even consider living in would be Botswana. The above poster is correct. Africa is a shithole and sending money doesn't do a thing because every person along the chain is taking their cut. What's left at the end is handed over to corrupt governments. The people who need it the most will never see it.

This is the true reality and the main problem in the poor countries worldwide. You've got a bunch of elite political or military people running the purse strings that siphon it all off before it gets to the folks that really need it and even when some money does trickle through its just a trickle.

Reminds me of the war lords skit on Saturday night Live...

Clinton goes jogging, stops by the mcdonalds & starts grabbing peoples bigmacs & attempts to show how warlords were stopping aid shipments

hahahaha

sicone · 07-03-2005, 01:53 PM

if they had the money to move... chances are they would have money to eat as well and therefore wouldnt be starving and in need of moving

Matt 26z · 07-03-2005, 01:57 PM

I saw this show on TV where these families were growing and eating weeds to survive. That's all they ate, ever. Why don't they plant real crops and farm the land?

the real reason is africa needs to keep poor....the area is rich in minerals, the world needs its diamonds & gold & oil....and its alot cheaper without a unified government of any sort, & having lots of slave labor present

but i agree, the areas need irrigation systems & more farming

People who donate are either naive, hypocrites, like to feel good while they're saving on taxes or just do it on social pressure.

im presuming you must mean, by 'Africa', the Central African Republic.
If so, and i did live there. Sure i would go move by the sea.

Simply i would pick up my worldly possessions (naturally balancing them on my head) and walk north across 2600 miles of desert, most likely taking the scenic route via Lake Chad,a quick tour through Manda national park and on up to the Tibetsi mountains in Niger before decending into the saraha desert.

After the 1000 mile or so walk across the desert, two countries and half a continent, i would climb 10,000 feet up the Atlas mpountains before decending into Algiers for a quick breather prior to my swim across the Mediteranean sea to spain where i would fish and shop in between shopping trips to Harvey Nics and Harrods in london.

They dont have to move to the coasts to get food. In a lot of places in africa they have great soil for farming, its just not utilized. I think its in Zaire where they use less than 10% of the potential soil to grow crops. If they used all they would be able to feed all of southern africa without a problem, yet a lot of the population still starve.

Furious_Female · 07-03-2005, 03:10 PM

Forget the food and relocating them... send them birth control. They need to stop having children that they can't take care of!

I know a lot of it has to do with the women in Africa being raped... but for the ones that have a choice, they need to enforce population control. So many children wouldn't starve to death if they weren't born to begin with.

Maybe in another parallel dimension idiots like this run governments, and those same governments aren't willing to help out poor countries, by sending money; and experts to help begin the process of agricultural reform.

No wait. That's what happens now. Maybe in another parallel dimensions your nic is gooddog, and the board is called www.gofuckeveryone.com

having many children is common in 99% of the 3rd World countries, it doesn't matter if they're in Africa, Asia, or South America, it's just a matter of survival

I don't mean to single out Africa, I believe in population control everywhere.. US too. With the AIDS crisis in Africa however, it's a bit more important there.

Poor countries in Africa rely heavily on assistance and support by non-profit organizations, not only for food, but for health and education as well. The 'highly enlightened' US government has pressured these agencies that provide aid, controling the message they are allowed to teach regarding birth control and sexual health - forcing them to preach an 'abstinence-only' platform. Not only effecting the birth rate in a negative way, but the spread of HIV/AIDS as well.

http://www.thenation.com/doc.mhtml?i...reland20020516

"For the millions of girls who marry before the age of 18 or who are forced into sexual relationships, abstinence is not an option, and lack of access to appropriate education and services can be life-threatening." And the International Women's Health Coalition's Adrienne Germaine underscores that "particularly in Asia and Africa--where sex with a virgin is considered safer, and where there is a widespread myth that having sex with a virgin cures AIDS--the American abstinence-only position is a dangerously sick joke." The United States has already spent $500 million in abstinence-only sex education at home--more than twice as much as it has donated to Kofi Annan's Global AIDS fund."

To suggest that 'moving to where there's more food' is the simple fix to an entire continent's social, economic, and cultural issues is such a monumentally ignorant statement.

There is some truth to that. Nobody every thinks about the horrible hardship that goes into mining the raw diamonds over there. All they think about is how pretty it is and/or how big a baller they are for buying it. Sadly, some of those people in Africa (and other parts of the world) are working in slave labor camps to get these stones.

I don't wear gold or diamonds... or buy it because of those exact reasons. Though as one person living in the Midwest I really can't do much to stop it all but I'll be dammed if I will support it. That's the least I can do.
