You appear to be clueless about how economy works.

If people spend these money to help feeding starving nations in Africa rather than updating a bloody video game yearly, they could save the lives of thousands. And then ironically, its MY approach that is disgusting. Not surprising given you're a typical first world gamer who is either ignorant or doesnt give a damn about what's going on a few miles away.

Cheers.


What are you doing to help the starving nations?


I'm taking care of a Brazilian boy through Save the Children orginization. I pay him $50 monthly (they wouldn't accept more).. enough to make him get education and live with comfort there. Also I have a religious obligation to pay 20% of my yearly income to poor people if I'm settled down. but I just can't do that now because my income is pretty low, I don't own a house, hell I don't even have a car and life is being tough on me currently.

However I'm aware that I need to harden the fuck up as it is all relative and some people out there are having it much worse than I am.

I hope that was detailed enough.

 

OP: I'm not replying more posts as it may get me banned since it isn't related enough to the thread.

 

I am Brazilian and that's a nice gesture of yours. But I can honestly say Brazil has had lots of social poverty programs (to which many reactionary, conservative people are nastly against) to take care of less fortunate regions (like the North) and it is also currently the 7th economy in the world - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Economy_of_Brazil.

I believe there are places that are far more in need of help.
