  • Third world countries exist due to cultural problems. You can't live in the new world while your head is still in the old. When you live in a hut, got no food or water, don't have any money either yet you make 10 kids because that's what god want's or that's what brings honor to your family, things can't get better. When instead of working together for the good of the society you keep fighting for power, things can't get better. When instead of investing money in education you invest money in religious police, things will go down the hill. When a continent with the most natural resources is the poorest one, you know something is wrong with the culture there.

      • What if my grandma would grow some nuts? will she become my grandpa? They been getting help from all around the world for a very long time, the money is spend on weapons, stolen by corrupted authorities. What if a family that lives in a mud hut would only have 2 children instead of ten? maybe they would be able to save up a little, get education. What if a country that have over 10% of its population infected with aids would take some measures? quarantine the infected population so it wont be spread, teach about condoms, or the people would be mature enough to take measures themselves, if they got it, don't spread it, if you don't have it, be careful. But people stick to their old rituals and traditions, I actually heard some interview where a woman claims that if a woman is not circumcised then the clit will go up into the head and kill her. You can't revive a self-destructing culture.

        • you are right but that is changing now as people are getting educated the no.of children is decreasing( majority)... and a time span of hundred years is enough to split the situation to opposite...isnt it..?/
          use of condoms is hell increasing... new parents try their best to admit their children to best schools, things are changing the only thing is the process is slow but again i say a 100 years is enough...

    • You may be right when you cite that culture plays a role in those called "3rdWC" but its not just that, it comes much more from the past than from now. You have to remember that several current-rich-countries once depended on the now-poor countries and played slavery and then when they got themselves *up there* they just left behind those other countries in that bad situation taking the whole prize and saying to whoever was able to hear: "we are the champions". And you say "fighting for power" ooo shit.. come on, whoever in the past wanted to show power... if it was not truth there wouldnt have been the so wel known cold war. I know I'm going far... but you have to see it in a whole instead of just "saying it".
