Absolutely right! Africa needs to use its resources and labor to solve its own problems. Foreign money does only just so much good, and what is left over is corrupting. Mr. Obama's approach to your problems has improved his image with his opposition in the USA. It is more realistic than we expected. Africa can be very rich (there are limits to how much wealth is good for people), but you must do it primarily on your own.

With the west and east fighting for africa's resources that's easier said than done.

Africa - the welfare continent.
