Right just a thought, but if I went to my local bank and was already up to my neck in debt and asked for a massive loan I would get told to sling me hook, but if I also told them I wanted to give some of it to “charity” I would be physically ejected and told never to come back until I had my mental state checked, Sounds logical to me.
So why are we still giving over seas aid to countries when we are mega skint, also why give to countries like China and India!?, both are far more wealthy than we are now and their economies are both growing rapidly unlike ours, Also does anyone know if any countries give us some form of aid at all or is it all one way??.

Annoying though isnt it?
here is how is goes, Uk does nice trade with say India, cheap labour and some rich person or persons get even richer,simples...
as for you at bank..they aint gonna get much out of you are they? simples, theyre greedy so and sos..dont care about peoples welfare..just lining their own pockets..whats in it for them syndrome..
if we didnt spend money on wars we go out looking for we would have money for own country residents first..the war for example..again nice earners for contractors (uk,usa etc) to make money rebuilidng, its disgusting...i keep expecting knock at door the way i am talking!!!!!!!
Hmm you have a point there del!!, crazy world or wot,I have heard that aid in Africa is doing more harm than good in some areas, but I think the bigest problem there is that they first had to agree to only export raw metials, anything manufactured is taxed heavily so they can't ever get out of the hole the banks and their corrupt leaders put them in, this also works well fore global businesses who like a little bit of instability and poverty to make massive profits from all the turmoil.
That said though it's easy for people of other countries to always blame us here for some or most of the ill's that their country is sufering today, it is highly important not to forget the past but to keep seeking to blame others for the current state of things, AIDS in South Africa is a clasic case of this, mind you we still feel as a nation that it is our god given right to sort out the worlds problems and by force in most casses, you would have thought that by now we should have learned at that this can make things a whole lot worseand cause big problems for many years after we have left.
Yep that's true!.
