If we give one generation food now, and then they have four children per couple because we facilitated it, then we would have to give twice as many people food the next generation, and the one after that, and the one after that, and the one after that and so on. Before you know it, you've wasted all your money and the problem is 64 times larger. |
While I don't support your reasoning, there are many people who argue that certain regions of the world (primarily Africa) have not developed primarily because of foreign aid. Foreign aid often protects and empowers dictators because it prevents the people from overthrowing these governments, and foreign aid is often stolen by the government to distribute how it sees fit (which typically means based on maintaining political power).
