| The world (should) value human rights, and countries that are able to save more lives at minimal cost of their own lives should give aid. Sure, America would lose a couple of thousand if we donated a little more aid. But that amount of aid could save millions. Surely that is worth it. Besides, we are (partially) guilty of our own folly in making some nations richer and some poorer.
Yes, the fact remains that countries have the right to fight for resources to protect their own people. But they must also remember that a world without Africa would make the world much harder to stand upon.* |
