First world governments giving financial aid to third world countries.

This is the start of the 3rd roundI don’t know where my opponent is getting his statistics as AIDS/HIV in Africa has steadily been dropping I got this from google public data (All info comes from the World Bank). This statistic says other wise, I'll start off with some countries that don't have that much of a big difference in AIDS prevelance then go to countries with big differences.Country (year - # of cases)Gabon (2000 - 1,800), (2009 - 3,600)Benin (2000 - 2,700), (2009 - 5,400)Swaziland (2000 - 7,600), (2009 - 14,000)Sudan (2000 - 3,800), (2009 - 15,000)Ghana (2000 - 16,000), (2009 - 27,000)Mozambique (2000 - 44,000), (2009 - 130,000)South Africa (2000 - 140,000), (2009 - 330,000)Nigeria (2000 - 250,000), (2009 - 360,000)Out of the 39 African countries that I researched (I know there's 53 African countries, there was just no data for the rest) only 4-5 countries showed a slight decrease in AID/HIV prevelance in the pass 10 years.The king then had a royal jet, thus he was happier. A happier king is a better king.Are you essentially saying that that having a happier king is more important than spending money on relieve for his people.The fact that the US provided money to various countries is a strong example of how financial aid has improved a country.Wouldn't having a bigger army just make more debt to a country which would increase more financial aid. Plus during the 1970s Israel and Jordan both requested for more financial aid just so they could get an upper advantage to each other because they in war against each other and even today Egypt uses it's military expansion just so it can maintain a military advantage to Israel. Is it a good thing knowing that taxpayers money are going towards fueling a war between two countries that they are not invovled in. Furthermore, a single example cannot be used to condemn foreign aid. What about the example I gave about aid going towards the war on drugs. Also I have stated another example above (Israel vs Eygpt). Another example could be in 1985 when the Mengistu government had a major famine, 200 million dollars worth of foreign aid went towards celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Marxist revolution. Another example is the free food running farmers and markets out of business.Instead of changing up our system of transporting the aid we should give up aid entirely.Don't get wrong I would support foreign aid if it were to address the problems I have listed and if the money and medical supplies were tracked better, but I feel foreign aid should be cut completely if all it doing in fueling wars, causing deaths to innocent lives (war on drugs), ect... and for the American carriers, I see no problem using Italian or French carriers. I would assume they would be guarded just like the American carriers.FOREIGN AID GETS COUNTRIES ONTO THEIR FEETActually there are statistics that might hint that foreign aid actually slows down a countries economy. For example, the salary in several South African didn't make that much of a growth once more financial aid was given. Another example is the GDP growth comparsion; once Cuba was cut off of financial aid in the 1990's it's GDP grew a total of 21% in the next 3 years, when Afghanistan was recently given more military aid it's GDP dropped 12%, When the republic of the Congo recieved extensive relieve to "fix its economy" the GDP dropped 23%. Japan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Brazil, China and India are all examples of countries that made it without financial aid.Don't vote for war activism or economy slow downs. VOTE AGAINST P.S. sorry for the delay I had work yesterday and didn't have time to write an arguement back, until today.SOURCESGoogle public datahttp://www.thefreemanonline.org...http://www.cato.org...
