4,292. Bert McDert Atlanta, GA How bout we just stop propping up governments
altogether? Surely there are NGOs doing good work in
Ethiopia that could do a lot more of it with an extra billion a
year? Perhaps even some working toward actually
improving the situation of the people the government is
trying to forcibly remove, such as for instance by
strengthening their rights to stay on their traditional land?

thing, but the effects will be devastating for the natives.
Please study more, read Lester Brown, and stop the land
grab.

4,311. Amber Baker Gibsonia, PA There are so many options for strengthening the people of
Ethiopia. Destroying more fertile land with big crop
consumerism is the most destructive option for the land
and its people. Can we not learn from what we already
know about this type of destruction. We've done it so many
times before, can we finally try something different?
