Starving in Africa
All over Africa people are starving and the world has figured out how to help. The solution is not sending aid but changing the culture. America gives aid but it doesn't help, because it causes high prices and corruption. What Africa needs is UNTIED AID. Which means aid which is coming from Africa and not tied to American subsidies for their farmers. If America agreed to buy a quota from local farmers and guaranteed it for a 5 years the farmers would come out of poverty. However the farming is not sustainable as long as the local market is flooded with aid.
