while agreeing with all posts don't you think if the so called poor countries could work out what they can do? there are hundreds of thousands of square miles of rich land so why do people starve in Africa India trillions of litres of water under ground why do they thirst we give aid but aid should be given as a last resort not expected. the workers in countries that give are finding it hard enough to live and feed their own who would ever believe there would be food banks here people living on the streets unable to get a roof over their head I am sure we at some stage hit hard times but we worked to put us back on track they just hang around for the next aid truck and its the powers that be just give money away like confetti this is not a law this is just not acceptable to the workers of our country.just my view jp
