I'm skeptic about myth #2 Foreign aid is a fragile process. If the country you're aiding is having political problems or poverty problems, aiding a country won't mean a lot. It will have an overall positive effect, but on the long run, I have my doubts. Political instability, poverty, illiteracy: relieving the pain of those problems can't be done without a minimum of politics, and when I mean that, I'm talking of both the country you aid and the country the help comes from. I agree with most of what they say about foreign aid, that we should not stop, but that doesn't mean I should blindly trust charities. Democracy and free markets doesn't bode well with generosity. Our governments don't have any interests in getting into the politics of charities. I really think it makes a difference when billionaires comes at those countries's help, rather than common citizens, but I wish there would be lobbies that work in the interests of charities. I wish there would be a true political debate about how governments could care about charities.
