> Are you saying we shouldn't ever lend money to African countries?

I don't think we ever can... The debt gets dropped, and you take note that
their credit rating is now wrecked, and game over. Let them get on with
it.

There's more to getting these people out of poverty than naive
expectations that "dropping the debt" will help them in the long term.
