    Some very important issues discussed here but no mention of the fact that a huge percentage of aid is siphoned off to off shore banks by corrupt leaders and even more is spent on buying weapons rather than decreasing poverty. Until we insist on the ability to deliver the aid to the intended targets there will be a very poor return on investment.

    Promise is not but enforcement or
    Implementation is important.

    Finally, do the richest countries of the world really want the third world to develop?? Do rich countries really want new competitors in the global market fighting to be the new world power? I don´t think so.

    Profit, Money, Capital markets, financial assets. Those are the main issues at the center of this debate. One of the biggest problems humanity faces nowadays is the overwhelming power of capital over democracy and people. And underneath that problem there are egoism, greed, ignorance. To transform human society in this case starts with a complete radical reform of financial markets. But bankers have no intention to accept such an endeavour. So, WAR IS ON!

    I think rather than what they say, how they react shows three of the major problems of aid today. A) That certain people consider money given to aid as "THEIR MONEY", B) That aid is a potentially perfect system, an abosolute, that can be achieved flawlessly off the bat, and C) That aid has the potential to turn a developing country into developed country in one fell swoop, ignoring every piece of development-related history from any part of the world.

    Good education plus the need to interact with people of other native languages on a fairly regular basis does that :)

    The big problem is that almost excessive amounts of oversight, the birds eye view so to speak, are required to dissect the problems properly. To get that, you need to study the systems in action, from the microscopic all the way to the macroscopic level. Poor people don't generally have time for that, since they're essentially 100% committed to their own survival and the survival of their families.

      As long as people continue to see themselves as separate from everything else, they lend themselves to being completely enslaved. Success depends on how well we relate to everything around us. Joy comes from that bliss of connectedness. I believe that unarmed truth and love will have the final word in reality. To love; you should have good heart. I am a good person until I see a person better than my standard of goodness. Being good is the progress towards a worthy cause. Love is God. Whoever lives in love, lives forever. How selfish it is to try to keep something forever? Love is all about nourishing, nurturing, sharing and expanding the love within you for all. The principle to which we adhere to is that we have kindness of love at heart for the whole of mankind. As long as there is the unnecessary differences within us; we can not live peacefully so we have to eliminate all the unnecessary differences among us so we can love all. People abilities may vary but not there true love. If we love a person/ God for a reason then we love the reason but not the person. No reason is the reason to love the person because true love never fails. So do not compare or measure the true love as first or the last but love all truly. If you love people truly then you can understand people. If you don't love then you don't understand people at all.
      People are controlled by system why?
      The Cyclical Consumption is the current economy all over the World. It is making the scarcity problems of the earth finite resources to deteriorate day by day. Current Monetary System is legalised theft. Real money is Gold and Silver. Scarcity gives the money more value. Real money won't lose it's value. When Governments stay away from Gold & Silver then very easy to transfer the wealth / resources to upper class the Rich (Corporatocracy) Elite. When the Governments are printing out more new fiat currency with reserve banks, our old currency is losing its purchasing power everyday. They are printing millions of currency everyday. All governments and laws are existing right now to transfer wealth to upper class the rich elite. The USA Government & other Governments are in many countries, bailed the investment banks & financial institutions in 2008 against the majority of the people. There is no democracy in any countries. Because of the Money System based on profits motive only above all else even humans lives and well-being. So, we do not have freedom to protect our values with the money so on. The violence, bankruptcy & all the negativities are build into the Monetary System of our society. All are owned (including ourselves) by Reserve Bank. Which is private cartel the corporation. So, in legal system, we are legally considered as chattel the properties. They make money in the capital markets with our birth certificates. They do not consider us as Humans. That's the truth. We are at the invisible war with the Elites (Corporatocracies). We have to fight for our Freedom. Resource Based Economy is the Solution. We have to declare the earth resources as the heritage of all the people of this world. So everyone has access to it. Please have your research about zeitgeist movement then you know the truth more.
      Truth About Health/Drugs Industry Because Of It Your Life At High Risk The drug industry is a 1/2 trillion dollars a year worldwide conglomerate. Almost 300 billions dollars just in North America. That is really big business. What would happen if everyone were well? There is no money in health. You see, good health makes a lot of sense but it doesn't make a lot of dollars. Because everything they do is toxic. Every drug they use, prescription drugs, all drugs are liver toxic, bar none. If you've had amalgam fillings put in your mouth by dentists. It is highly toxic. There's cancer because most of the chemos are themselves carcinogens. To view the tumor as the cancer and we know the tumor is not the cancer. The cancer industry is 200 billions dollars a year. The more work they get, the more profit there is. You have to dismantle; If the truth ever came out about what we would need to do. 30% of people of females in America are at risk of getting, will get cancer of the breast. The ones that are already dead have been grossly mistreated by the medical profession and by the government that supposedly is supposed to encourage free research and development of all possibilities. Why would medical doctors who studied medicine and practice medicine and are heavily funded by pharmaceutical companies why would they go and look into vitamins? That they never had the answer orthomolecular. And as more and more of our population start taking their health into their own hands, there's going to be even more and more of changes. It can't go on the way it is. The system is failing apart. We must make nutrition the primary prevention strategy for the population. You are what you eat. You are everything that you have ever done to yourself. The choices you make directly affect the outcome of your life. - (Food Matters Documentary in Netflix)

    That being said, I'm sure that anyone of these people who are engaged in it in an academic sense have done exhaustive interviews with the people they speak of, so as to represent the entire picture, rather than just their own narrow view.

    Regarding AID, you have to remember the bigger picture here. If you send humanitarian aid for development, the receiving country should be prepared to absorb it. How? Well, TO START WITH they should have INTELLIGENT HONEST LEADERS IN POWER not stupid cruel dictators. Then, no corruption, or at least lower levels of corruption. Then, education, health, housing programs. Then, sustainability programs, their economies should be able to stand on their own at some point. COMPLEX TASK!!!
