GOD BLESS AFRICA!

I have come to research the following information on hunger in Africa, and even before my research this has been a growing problem over decades. My main concern is the root of this problem and how we can come to terms with solving it which I have high hopes for. If this is one of the wealthiest lands in all of the world where diamonds and gold come from with the known facts of treasures being found and researched why is there so much poverty? I can only come to terms that this is not only an economic issue but a political issue as well. Hunger is... 
  • the uneasy or painful sensation caused by want of food; craving appetite. Also the exhausted condition caused by want of food
  • the want or scarcity of food in a country

I cannot wrap my mind around why in fact if there are a lack of resources, which causes poverty who is the diamond and gold miner going through the country digging for the resource and not having the country benefit from the wealth of it's worth. When there are animals that are rare and you can't find them elsewhere in the world isn't that of valuable resource? Or how about the fact that there are archives of unexplained and hidden history that holds the power to knowledge beyond measure? All that is withheld to gain power for the greed of it all, an extremely unequal income distribution. Essentially control over resources and income is based on military, political and economic power that typically ends up in the hands of a minority, who live well, while those at the bottom barely survive, if they do. We have described the operation of this system in more detail in our special section on Harmful economic systems.  I found this particular part of an article very interesting being that this system in America seems to pour their hearts out to those in need but the flashiest of them all besides Europe and even they have their own way of doing things. Who's military is in control of these resources because the way I see it someone is doing it all wrong with intentions of being selfish. Someone is getting cheated and it doesn't look like we (Americans) are as so much as they are. Most of our resources come from them so how in the world are they suffering more than we are? And when I say resources I mean the things that we so dearly hold fascinating, fancy, and flashy with a costly price. What is the price that they are paying indefinitely? What is the strife the land is going through? There was a time the land was plentiful and now it seems to be drained. The motherland is suffering from influences that we underestimate we take things for granted while the importance of needs and wants lie deeper!  When will the wake up call alert us all to what is being destroyed> ARE YOU AWARE?

  1. I must say, I have never thought of it that way. One of the richest countries in the world in terms of resources, yet it is poverty shrunk. This is why I love conversing with you, my B.B.Q. mental stimulation
