However, there are many, many other reasons why giving or sending billion dollar packages in the form of US dollars, for example, into small economies is very harmful. For example, you can see why having that kind of money flying into a country makes the government less inclined to raise money through other sources of capital because they have this steady flow of permanent income, what they perceive as permanent income coming in. The government develops what I call a Lazy muscle and this breeds dependency which means that governments are not focused on actually building up other sources of capital such as the private sector which is important for growth. In particular its no surprise that things like education, healthcare, infrastructure, and even security are now being provided to Africa from outsiders and that leaves a situation where African governments have a questionable role what is the role for African governments when they are not responsible for those things. It seems this could just as easily apply to every government/liberal giveaway in the United States as well. It simply breeds laziness and kills any incentive to do something productive with your life.

The left destroyed the black race in this country for the sake of votes and it has been doing the same for Africa.
