Foreign aid - Good policy or good politics
Is foreign aid a sincere attempt to alleviate suffering or is it merely a cheap way of buying favors from impoverished, corrupt nations and their dictators?
Generally foreign aid money goes through recepients government, which gives the corrupt officials the power to keep the money to themselves. Only a small amount of the received aid generally goes into supporting the populace. Yet even if theft is obvious, western governments still keep injecting money - is it because there is an ulterior motive for the aid given or do they think that low support is better than no support at all?
