Why is it that if developed countries help third-world countries it will supposedly promote long-term peace?..

Question

I was just wondering.....can you think on any other benifits for developed countries who help third world countries?

Answer 1

Most help given by developed countries results in the donor country getting something substantial back, often against the interests of the recipient. There is still no such thing as a free lunch. Mind you, Cuba, certainly not part of the developed world, does a great service in providing medicine and doctors to countries that cannot afford them.

Answer 2

That's been going on for several decades,and it increases our national debt and does little in the long run.If people can't self-govern no amount of money will solve their problems.
