Widespread Praise of Bush’s Africa Visit Ignores his Flawed Legacy by Combined Sources is an article that criticizes negatively the intrusions of the U.S. on Africa. The article implies that spending the national budget to help African countries with AIDS, wars, and financing projects such as AFRICOM are a waste of money. It might be true that help provided by the U.S. seems as a waste of taxes in the short run, but it demonstrates the opposite when it helps people with food, shelter, education, and even to better their governments. Helping another person becomes more appealing when an abundance of resources exist making this action morally correct. The article says that instead of helping solve the problems of other countries the U.S. should focus on its own problems, but this is unfitting in today’s globalization, because the world is more connected therefore, nations depend on one another for survival. The U.S. and other countries are trying to help Africa because it has some economic importance, it is not mainly pity.
