Causes and Needs
In the final analysis parts of the world where massive disease and hunger exist don't magically appear. And the don't exist because those countries that are better off are starving them or spreading disease.
Those areas of the world exist due to corrupt and banal governments that care more for their own personal bank accounts than they do for the people.
Or they exist because people put tribal and ethnic values ahead of lower priorities like food, shelter and health.
Stealing from the wealthy (who became wealthy through work and dedication) to give to those who choose not to better their own lives does nothing but perpetuate the very conditions you condemn.
Sending food to Zimbabwe to feed the people that Mugabe is starving by destroying the farms does nothing but keep him in power that much longer and guarantee the situation will not improve.
Don't talk about pirates as heroes. They do nothing but perpetuate the problems they supposedly want to get rid of.
