For God's Sake, Please Stop the Aid!

This is not usually what I write about, but this interview with the Kenyan economics expert James Shikwati sounds a little weird to me I like to share it with you as it maybe one of the weirdest interviews I ever read, James Shikwati says that aid to Africa does more harm than good. despite it is a little bit weird and unexpected it makes great sense to me.

It's like when parents decide to leave there boy experience life and learn from it rather than always telling him what to do and give him every thing he needs, just to teach him to look after his responsibilities by himself rather than always need somebody to carry him, to me this way of teaching a boy how to become a man is a good way maybe this boy hate it but when he start growing up he will see it's benefits and thank his parents for treating him this way.

I think this is the same situation of Africa with western countries, any way as Shikwati pointed on his interview this aid didn't solve the problem till now so why don't they try stopping it maybe Shikwati's plan works.

Well I don't know much about economics but I'm just sharing my thoughts.
