    Poverty exists for a large number of reasons other than the lifestyles we live in the western world, and I'm not willing to join the ambulance at the bottom of the cliff brigade. While I do find your attempts to save the world honourable, they are misguided. Until we get rid of corrupt politicians in third world countries taking all the handouts and spending them on AK47s, we will never have any amount of security in Africa. Until we get rid of the churches using aid missions as a disguise for recruitment drives in developing countries, the local populaces will never have a chance at an unbiased education and the right to accurate knowledge about human sexuality. Until the UN gives up convincing developing nations that their valuable oil reserves are 'bad for the environment' - reserves that could give their country energy and a valuable commodity to trade - we will never see infastructure development on a meaningful scale that allows trade and business to prosper.

    Start looking for solutions to those problems, then we might see some real, long term change.
