"Never mind that the stars sent to bring succor to the natives often are, willingly, as emaciated as those they want to help."

Ouch, that'll leave a mark.

It would seem that misery is the most valued export Africa has to offer, from the perspective of the dogooders of the western world.

Support reform, demand accountability, and let Africans sort things out for themselves, find ways to help people and villages directly without enriching kleptocrats.

While you're at it, kill President Robert Mugabe and all his cronies, there's no hope for Zimbabwe otherwise.

I still think my modest proposal regarding helping Africa makes some sense, sadly.
