DC, should be spending OUR money, on this country first. I think its a disgrace that, this country is suffering severe cuts.

Frankly Arthur you have no idea what real poverty looks like..It's walking miles to get dirty filthy water out of a mud hole. It's taking a day to get to the nearest hospital where if you are lucky there are actually medicines, let alone medical staff..No fridges,no washing machines, no TV,no electricity..
These are the people who are leaving their homes to find their way to Europe where life is better than were they come from.
IF we don't give aid then there will be more and more and more arriving across the Mediterranean.I'd say we aren't giving enough.
As for the corrupt like Mugabe getting their hands on aid money that's down to poor organisation which is what should be addressed..there are ways to give aid directly to those who need it and bypass corrupt governments.
