Very simple: Champion free trade on the condition these 'poor' countries open their markets to competition both in terms of business players and investments.

Why?

The REAL SOLUTION to global poverty is TO GROW THE MIDDLE CLASS THROUGH MARKET-DRIVEN ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

And you can't do that by POURING TRILLIONS into these countries because of their corrupt oligarchies.

Foster COMPETITION and the EASIER FLOW of goods and capital and you can REALLY HELP poor people.

Don't focus on how your chump change can make you 'feel better about helping poor people'... Focus instead on policies that produce RESULTS.

The only people your GUILT is helping are the SCUMBAG CORRUPT POLITICIANS AND MONOPOLISTS in 3rd World hell holes who simply SUCK UP your GUILT CASH.

Wake the F up!

Please.

Thanks
