LOL, I could go looking for some. But then on the internet one thing is a certain, if you go looking for something you will find it.
It seems somewhat dishonest for me to do such a thing.
I believe, to my own embarrassment, on a mere collection of frequent news reports and semi-related things I have read and/or seen regarding 'Africa'. There has always been some sickly 'African' child on television starving to death in my lifetime, trying to tug on empathy strings for aid.
Perhaps you could set me straight then, what is your reasoning for the contrary position. Facts and data help.
I always just assumed based on the nature of never ending 'African aid' commercials that it was a net deficit for everyone, including the people living there.
I would hope your data doesn't use the potential risks of doing nothing as a measurable quantity to offset the net return on outside............. suppose I'll start calling it investment instead of aid now, seeing as your going to show me we take more out than put in.
I realise I haven't specified where exactly in Africa, but then you have already supposed something in there by taking an opposing stance. So by all means.
