Written with Africa in mind, let's begin........


PROBLEM #1

3rd world countries are trying to reach the 'Western Standard' too soon, and are trying to rush through all the stages of development. There is a lot of urbanization, and yet they have not developed their agriculture. This means there is generally little (or no) food to go around, hence the adverts on TV telling you to give away your hard earned money to lazy spongers.


PROBLEM#2

There is little infrastructure, which leads us onto problem #3

PROBLEM #3

3rd world countries are trying to field large armies, to fight their neighbors. This means most (if not all) of the little tax money governmetns earn goes to the military, which they want to be the 'Western Standard'. These large militaries often have little food and low pay. This also causes a large government deficit.



SOLUTION TO ALL THREE PROBLEMS


Governments in 3rd world countries should stop spending on their military, infact should almost completely demilitari\ze, with less than 20,000 troops in their armed forces. This would lower the taxes and the deficit the government runs up.

With little money going to the military, the government should start with ifnrastructure, starting with clean wells and proper irrigation. This would solve the food crises in Africa and other poorer nations. With enough food being produced, and plenty of water around, dams should be built to provide even more water and clean electrical power.


This should put nations on a stable footing so they may become prosperous in the future. With more food and water, and less people dying, the economy may thrive further, and the population would be sustainable.

Thz if you read all the way through

Would never work, because what would happen with such low troop numbers is that those "People's Armies" that plague Africa and many poor nations would just run around killing unopposed. It's not so much that they want big western standard militaries, it's that they want to be able to enforce laws in areas beyond the capitol city.

I like how you think, though. If only it were that simple. Ironically, african nations are skipping many developmental stages at the urging of industrialized nations. :P

I heard Botswana lacked an army for like a decade.

That would be an interesting assertion of our ideals on another culture, yes? I thought we'd abandoned the Roosevelt Corollary a long time ago...

Basically, we put our militaries in to keep the peace, so the coutnries can get on with developing.

a good portion of food crisis in Africa is not because they don't have agricultural lands... Its because that agricultural product is either not food or is being sent to Western Countries where they get little in return and ends up starving... Funny how one can starve when food is still present eh? Blame Western laws before you complain about 3rd world Africa.

Food would not show up in Western countries unless they get more profit shipping it here than selling it domestically.

These countries should stop exporting food until they're able to feed their own populace.

Why not put the west in charge until these countries are ready to go their own way?

I think the first thing they need is to have a true democracy.
