These are peaceful places, but that does mean that the local governments are competent. The writer says we need to teach or subsidize farming. But that takes a greater infrastructure that needs a government that can administer. Again the writer says we need more education for women so that a cycle can be broken, again that requires a competent government. We also need birth control until the situation is stabilized, it is hard to educate women if they are pregnant soon after reaching puberty. Again we need a competent government to make sure that the clinics are in place. The writer says we should give folks money so that local economies might be supported - Yes, we need a government in place to help that take place.
If we just dump food, at least we know that food is being supplied. And yes, it probably is slanted toward those companies that know how to lobby our congress. What else is new?
Colonization may be the only long term solution until the infrastructures are in place.
