Swimmer, go read what relief workers write about HIV in Africa. Yes, people see their families and friends die from AIDS, but the relationship between HIV and preventative measures are overcome by ignorance and (worse) cultural stigmas.

This has been lessened in some areas, not by "throwing money" at the problem, but by funding real people on the ground to do the messy work.

If we all think we should take care of Americans first...great, let's do it...but to be honest the wealth gap in this country is getting wider, not more narrow.

Actually Skip, for it to be considered a debate you'd have to offer some counterpoints
