Examines whether US foreign aid has been a benefit or a pain in the arse for impoverished people. Looks at a book by Dambisa Moyo called Dead Aid: Why Aid is Not Working and How There is a Better Way
for Africa. Uses the evidence of Patrice Lumumba, Mobutu, and AFRICOM
to contradict her conclusion that Africans need tough love.
