When Charity Becomes a Curse
Picture a trillion-dollar experiment that failed spectacularly. Over six decades, Western nations pumped more than $1 trillion into Africa-roughly $1,000 for every person alive on the continent today. The result? Poverty rates didn't fall; they tripled from 11% to 66%. This isn't just inefficiency-it's a catastrophic reversal. What if the very thing meant to save Africa has been slowly killing it? This uncomfortable question drives one of the most provocative economic arguments of our time: that foreign aid, far from being Africa's lifeline, has become its greatest curse. The idea sounds almost heretical. After all, we've been conditioned to believe that giving is inherently good, that more resources must lead to better outcomes. But what happens when generosity becomes dependency, when help becomes harm?
