i donate to charity but i've always thought, why the fk am i giving money when my own government cant be half arsed to do anything real to help these people anyway.

The facts are no government decide to take action to intiate a program that wont end up in profits for them.

Thats why we invaded Iraq and not Zimbabwe, Diamonds dont sell as well as Oil.

Its pretty much a fact that EVERY government on the face of this earth is corrupt to some extent, and as long as everyone is in it for themselves the citizens will always suffer and not get the sufficient help they need.

Famine and anything of the sort could be solved so fking easilly, but theres no point in even getting into that as it will never happen as long as humans have the basic instinct to do whats best for them, greed.
