[quote=time.com]For a South African victim of human trafficking, this was the endgame. On a freezing night last July, Sindiswa, 17, lay curled in a fetal position in bed No. 7 of a state-run hospice in central Bloemfontein. Well-used fly strips hung between fluorescent lights, pale blue paint flaked off the walls, and fresh blood stained her sheets, the rusty bedpost and the linoleum floor. Sindiswa had full-blown AIDS and tuberculosis, and she was three months pregnant. Sweat poured from her forehead as she whispered her story through parched lips covered with sores. A few blocks away, the roars of rugby fans erupted from Free State Stadium. In June the roars will be from fans of the World Cup.[/quote]

I'd call the immigrant workers in Italy and spain similar.
They get around 15€ per day for the hardest field work you could imagine.
It was just in the news because of people in south italy gathering mobs. The police had to evacuate over thousand workers out of an old factorie where they and their families shared 8 chemical toilets.
It#s a pretty big scandal in Italy right now.
doesnt surprise me.
Africa is a shitty country in which any aides efforts are wasted.
Did anyone notice how this article seems to be from the future?

I ain't shitposting shit, I stated Africa is a shitty country, Killauh stated we made it that way, I asked for proof, and he said history.
I was poking holes in his logic.

I rate myself to feel better. :rolleye:
Another thing: Why don't you proof your statement first?
No. History doesn't prove that Jesus Christ is real.
The colonization of Africa however is well documented, as well as the chaos, the civil wars, the disease, the desertification and the massive economic exploitation after WW1 and 2 when the big nations retreated from Africa.
Statistics show that Africa is exporting more food like corn, soy and coffee into the western countries than the world-aid combined.

Okay. We donated over billions of worth of aides/supplies to this country, yet they're still filled with famine, rebellion, and death. You know why? Because the Government reserves every fucking food and supply to their top elites where they leave the civilians to starve. 1/3 of Africa admitted they gang-rape for fun. It's a shit place.

Are you claiming it is a shitty government or it is a shitty "country/place"?
Actually they are exporting every fucking food supplies into our countries as most of the industry there depends directly or indirectly on the western industry.

You realize that was in the past and we had no control over their democratic process over the few years and donated [b]BILLIONS[/b] worth of aides? We didn't nominate Mugabe and other dictators. We didn't somehow have 1/3 of their population participate in gang rape. We didn't create the rebel cells. We DID however gave them supplies, education, and etc. which is all going to waste thanks to the Government.

We destroyed their historically grown social structures in mid 19th century and forced almost every single human there into economical depependence inducted slave labour.
In 1950 we left them for dead when the colonies stopped making profit and let our industry take that role.
And how many times do i have to tell you that the "billions" worth of aides are NOTHING compared to the billions times billions of profit the western countries made by paying almost nothing for cheap ressources.
Who do you think is digging for the bauxit used for the production of almost any Aluminium product you use? Where do you think the gold used in your PC is comming from? I tell you: millions and millions of workers working under unhuman conditions and for payments that barely get them food and housing.
Sure we didn't create the rebel cells, but we left the damn continent in a state that made the "rebbel cells" form.
WE are selling BILLIONS AND BILLIONS worth of weapons to their governments AND rebell cells.
Don't make it look as if they somehow WANTED to get into a miserable situation.

19th century was when conquering and taking slaves were the common things. I ain't justifying something terrible as slavery, but you can't blame primary USA for that, son.
We needed to make profit and rise in ranks after WW2 and great depression. History son, history.
This be the first time, because you've been ignoring that the whole time. You do realize they don't [b]have[/b] to right? If Africa is truly the 100 percent export megashit they are, they have the authority here. They're the economy. But they don't, because the corrupted government wants to control their people like dictators.
And that's exactly what I'm talking. Barely any food and housing. Why? Because no matter how much food we give them, [b] it directly goes to the top elite douchebags of Africa[/b]
No we're not. We're definitely selling guns to the Government, but it's the illegal blackmarket people whose making profit off selling guns to Rebels.

Honestly, we should just pull out of Africa and let it sort itself out. It's beyond the point of repair, and no matter how many millions of dollar go into it, nothing ever happens.
