Answer 1

Resources are limited and finite. Using them on Africa means not using them elsewhere considered more important for whatever reasons. Really, nobody should "save" the Africans besides the Africans. Others can merely help them along.

Answer 2

Why does America have to save everyone?? We are criticized for trying to help, we are criticized for not taking action. Basically, we can't win. Tell France, Germany, China, Russia, etc. to save Africa. I don't hear anyone asking why they aren't involved. Oh wait, that's right, their contribution to the world is to blame the USA for all of the world's ills.

Answer 3

We have wasted too much money in Africa already. All it does is line the pockets of dictators and local politicians. Africa has a rich history in famine and drought. Money will not change that.

Answer 4

Because the USA is too busy trying to save 25 other places at the same time.The troops and their equipment can only be stretched so thin!

Answer 5

if they truly beleived in god they woul spend the amounts of money mentioned in the articles 456 billion everyone could use some of that send some to africa send some my way imy college could be funded for years with a bit of that money this why i think someone should vote against god having control in u.s. as the power of god should go where it will do the most good and should go to those who raise money to help people in the name of god not kill in the name of god also why i think ballot box and ballotswith alternitives to god should be emplaced and other religions could voice their opinions of god through these means and transfer power away from anyone who would use religion to kill in any god's name back to the god or god's

Answer 6

everyone expects us to save them and none of them want to defend protect or help us because many are just jealous.it is time to stop ignoring our own people we need to take care of our own and the rest need to take care of themselves instead of bleeding their own countries dry and robbing and starving their own people.that is their problem and much of it they have done to themselves because they are too shiftless and lazy to fix anything!enough already all these years money and food has poured in these nations where they keep breeding and having kids they cant feed and now spreading aids all over without regard to anyone! it is stupid!
