"Did you know that 40% of population in N.Korea is dieing from poverty? "



I have never heard of death by lack of funds. I should have been dead a long time ago, along with various members of my family if such a thing occurs.



Yes, I am a smartass.

I think the people in N. Korea are innocent. (not all of them ) We should do something about the limited food supply. It is true that North Korea "is an axis of evil", but we should reconsider, the government are the one buying weapons and armed materials, not exactly the citizens. The people may not support their government, they just have to abide by their government. So, I think we should help them in food supply related terms.

Yah.. I'm going to have to agree with the previous posters on this one... and that poll was.. interesting. Next time include another choice, please smile

But we should deal with the problems in our own country before we try to solve other countries' ordeals.

The half truth is:

All of the poor, starving nations don't have enough money for food and medicine.

The whole truth is:

All of the poor, starving countries don't have enough money for food and medicine after buying all thier guns and tanks.

How do the people of N. Korea get food? Their government. They are communists and the N. korean Government decides who gets what to eat. Bottom line is we are going to help these people one day when we go to war with N. Korea in the future.

I agree with outspoken, feed ourselves first, and then give our scraps to the lazy communists.

Ah, a little lesson for dear noyor. Now, I know this might be beyond your grasp, but generally, the use of a poll is to find out other people's opinions on a certain issue. Because of this, more than one option on the poll is a standard. Now, looking at your poll, we see that it has one choice, and not a very good one at that.


Now, for your actual question: No, we should worry about America's hungry before helping everyone elses. The phrase is often used "There are starving people in Africa so eat your (fill in nasty food here)." Sometimes it's a joke, for me, it was usually true. Anyway, my point is that there are starving people right here in the USA, who are just as hungry. So, we should start feeding our own people, and after that, then we can branch out...maybe.
