Africa food crisis: Who’s to blame?

Why do more than half of all African countries need urgent food assistance?

The main reason is poverty.

But it is more complicated than that and involves a series of systematic problems such as unreliable rains, HIV/Aids, political strife, conflict, underinvestment in rural areas and unchecked population growth.

Who do you think is to blame for Africa’s permanent food crisis? Why is more than half the continent in need of urgent food assistance? How can the problems be solved? Send us your views and experiences.

    I believe that the FIRST Thing we have to do is:
    To Educate Women about SEX
    They Most Know that Before to Get Pregnant,
    a. Has to be a Husband To Support Her and their
    innocent Child.
    b. Is there enough Money to Feed Herself, during
    Pregnancy, and After She has the Innocent Baby

    We have to educate Men and Women, that if they can not Support an Innocent Child, is BETTER Not to Bring Any BABY To Suffer to This Cruel World.

    It makes me Very Sad to See Babies Crying, with Hunger, and Being Raised by a Single Parent.

    And it Makes me Angry for That Stupidity and Ignorance of those Women and Men that Chose to Have A Baby when They Do Not Even Have Food or Money to Support Themselves.

    Babies Never Ask to Come to This World!

    I Highly Recommend:
    Abortion and Sterilization
    if Condoms are Not Available.
