Are aid monies to Africa misappropriated?

Asked by nerfmissile (318points) December 1st, 2007

The majority of the world’s aid money goes to a place it isn’t helping, with zero net return and arguably negative return, in terms of human suffering. Why aren’t we 1) investing in African small businesses instead of throwing money and food at warlords, 2) investing in countries closer to home: Central and South America and 3) investing in India, the world’s largest democracy?
