Live 8 is wrong
What is this? the next UN ploy to steal what we work hard for and give it to others. while it is sad that people are starving I think we could help by teaching them how to work the land (without overworking) reduce the pregnancies in areas that can not support the people.
Live 8 is a series of concerts and events across the world which are being staged to highlight the problem of global poverty. It’s a chance for ordinary people to call on world leaders at this year’s G8 summit and tell them to put a stop to the needless deaths of 30,000 children every single day.
OK, if you are lazy get off your ass and work. If you can not find work move to where the work is.
On 6th July 2005, the leaders of Great Britain, the USA, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan and Russia will meet at Gleneagles in Scotland to talk about world affairs, including Africa. They will be presented with a workable plan to double aid, drop the debt and make trade laws fair.
OK so they want to tax me more and give it to people that don’t work for what we give them now. Damn I am sorry but why?
The G8 summit is our opportunity to demand that the world’s most influential leaders take action now.
This is a bunch of liberal/progressives with an idea out of reality. Our giving people money and food will not teach them how to make there own money or grow there own food.
Live 8 has organized concerts in Philadelphia, Berlin, London, Rome, Paris and Edinburgh, with 100 artists, a million spectators, two billion viewers and one message: Make Poverty History.
I would love to see Poverty become a thing of the past but not by me giving what I work for to someone that does not work.
I will give my Church (which has several current missions in Africa) an additional $100 for the missions. but I will not support this loony leftist socialist plan.

You can tell a Liberal by the way they want to spend someone else’s money.
Good post. I would be in favor of aid if there was accountability and results. Since there isn’t……

helping people only makes them helpless. I have no sympathy for Africa. They have giant fields, healthy vegetation, and for christ sake..GOLD MINES. The more we give those people aid and support the more they will put their hand out. Live 8, in my honest opinion, is anti-evolution.
