Wednesday is black?
Jesus man I thought you were posting from Finland.

This $40 billion is the best thing G8 has done in a very long time. Sadly, that won’t be enough, but I hope this is just the beginning. I don’t want to diminish what’s been done, it truly is a great and uber-wonderful thing, but I hope we do more. Nations such as Africa need a lot of help. Otherwise, they will sink right back into yesterday’s status quo in a matter of a decade.
On top of that, there are a lot of other dictators in nations like Africa who aren’t sitting on oil but are doing just as bad or worse than the guy we just spent billions of dollars and way too many lives unseating. Yup, we got rid of one set of bad guys. Yay! Now I guess we’ll turn this profit we’ve been denying and use at least some of it to help other nations and unseat those other bigger, badder, and more immediate “threats to democracy,” right?
I have a lot to say about this, but I'll save it for another time.
Probably the most thought provoking interview thus far.
