try saying that to the warlords
[QUOTE=X-Villan-X;16121707]you make it sound like we care you have studied[/QUOTE]
I'm just saying that because it explains why I don't explain things the conventional way with the words "like" "uhm" "so eh" slapped in between.
Metaphors are very powerful, that's why I use them.

oh boy philosophy, tell me more about things you don't understand.
maybe when you're done you can take a course that will actually teach you about things you claim to know about, instead of babbling like a retard on an internet forum

no, it was just you making a fool out of yourself. you don't understand the situation and you tried to explain it in bullshit nonsensical 'life ratings' like this is some kind of video game. stop embarrassing yourself.
[QUOTE=pie_is_good;16058472]What we should do is grind up all the africans into food to feed the africans and there will be food for all the africans and no one will be hungry or sad :)[/QUOTE]
We did this with Cows, and we got Mad Cow disease.

Because it doesn't make any sense and it is a bad metaphor.
[QUOTE=Demode;16115981]This guy has a point.
Though, that said. If America spent 1/3 of their military budget on foreign aid, there'd be no world hunger.[/QUOTE]
Why the fuck does everyone always want us to cut funding for shit and help a different country, but once we do it they bitch.
How about we keep our money, stop sending them support, and let them take care of their own damn country. The support we are giving them is not helping at all, they need self motivation to help themselves (death).

I don't see how that helps them.

Self motivation.

If billions worth of aid given over years and years won't help them, noting will.
Their a lost cause and we can't do anything to help it.
Africans need to stop killing each other and grow food in the fertile conditions; parts of darfur for instance, land is so lush and green there that it burns your eyes, yet people are doing shit all there.

But they won't because they don't have self motivation. Why do that when they can get free food from the UN?

When you get used to a certain life standard it's much worse to go back to the situation before, if you disagree, please tell me why.

[QUOTE=SolidusBlack;16059161]Africa needs a unified government.[/QUOTE]
The same way America, Canada and Mexico need a unified government.
How about we just close the borders to africa and let them all die of aids then move in and turn it into a theme park?

Well why don't you explain how we should handle the problem then.
That would be much better than telling me to shut up.
We should drop huge boxes full of condoms to them and put instructions inside. But then they'd probably think that it's the condoms which spread AIDS...

Well, from what I've heard Stene is that alot of people in Cape town use the ends of condoms to hold up their soccer socks. I kid you not. :v:

generally exploiting african resources and funnelling the profits into western international companies and western backed dictators isn't the best idea for developing countries. it probably would be best to avoid doing that, it's not going to happen though.
i agree OP we should let the niggers starve :)
Give a man food and he'll be fufilled for a day.
Teach a man to farm (Or in the case of Africa, bitch slap them all into getting along with each other) and he'll never go hungry again
(It's not meant to be literal, yes I know there will be droughts and famines as well)
It's a shame something as feeding a country at it's constant worse is so hard for the world to do, to help another country, while we're happy to bail out some shitty bank.

You'd be surprised at how hard it is to get a country back on its feet again. I country isn't going to get better just by throwing money at it. At least banks know how to use the money (hopefully?)
