Which third world country is the neediest?

Sometimes I think that one thing that has value would be to help educate poor hungry children.

What country do you think has the most need?

There are a lot of places where children are orphaned and go naked in public and beg for food and don’t go to school. Countries in Africa children don’t get an education because they don’t have the clothing or they have to spend a lot of time hauling water for their family so they can have drinking water, water to wash dishes, cook & wash clothing. Haiti is another country with great needs and have been exploited after earthquakes with charity foundations set up for assistance but the money never reaches the people who need it.

@cherokeepatti I hate hearing that it doesn’t get where it’s needed. I just don’t understand why. We all believe the money we send is yes paying someone’s salary so they can go there to help, but also getting to the needy.

I get called “passionate”. I get that’s a compliment. But…I can’t be THAT unique. I believe there is a lot of compassion, if not compassion, at the very least, anger.

@Mindful I wouldn’t be surprise if that destructive earthquake was triggered by HAARP energy. Clinton & Bush sitting together on stage after pretending to be mortal enemies presenting to the public on tv a plan to help those poor Haitians recover if people would donate to their charity foundation was one reason I figured they had this planned. I think it was about 3 cheaply built houses total were built and they smelled badly of chemicals used to treat the wood. SHAME on them.

@cherokeepatti please don’t spread untruths that you don’t have proof of, I get that there are some very influential people in the world… who would do anything for money. But without evidence it’s slander. Often times the real criminals come as a surprise. Just acknowledge that, we don’t know.

@Mindful You know i can say whatever the hell I want to say. Bush and Clinton were thick as thieves the entire time they had us believing they were mortal enemies. This nation got played badly.

@cherokeepatti Africa is our mortal enemy? Haitians our mortal enemies? Or Bush and Clinton mortal enemies?

In politics and court, it’s common knowledge that opponents are debating are not necessarily mortal enemies. Somewhat like sports. And the courtroom. There is competition, but it doesn’t make you a mortal enemy.

Thick as thieves. I’ve heard of money being used inapropriaty …. But… by various groups… Clinton is famous so is Bush, I’m just not sure who the others are that haven’t been caught. It’s like speeding. Guilty when caught… what about those that haven’t been caught yet? Aren’t they also guilty? Anyhow, We have to find solutions to problems. And, I’m glad that finance is being looked at more closely regardless “who” it is.

Of course, I’m grateful we can both say what we want to say. I believe “you’re the iron that sharpens iron”.
