Hugums, you have a very shallow view of the world in general. You basically compiled a paragraph full of buzzwords and tried to create facts. I'm not trying to stuff on you but you really have no real hard grasp on the issue. Example: The Vietcong were the guerrilla movement in South Vietnam that counteracted the US by gaining a foothold in the local population, something the US never could fully match. They weren't mercenaries, because they were a grass roots people's militia based off of the Vietminh that drove the Japanese out (and later the French). Also they weren't hired by anyone to help the NVA, which is pretty important if you think about it. Also impoverished nations generally lack any hospitals or places to tend for the sick, and the living conditions for most are dismal. Overcrowding does breed diseases like tuberculosis and plague, so the poorest of the poor generally suffer the most. Topped this onto the lack of clean fresh water and lack of knowledge about how disease spread and you have your AIDs/HIV/Hepatitis/etc. You can measure the quality of living of a country by the birth rate, if the birthrate is very low; it will show the quality of life as being very poor. |
