Just think how many lives $15k could have saved in war-torn Africa. Oh without a doubt, video games for kids already lucky enough to get proper healthcare are more important than meals and fresh water and shots for kids unlucky enough to be born to die with absolutely nothing. If Red Cross and such organizations reached even a majority of the kids I'm referring to, I wouldn't even make this post. But remember this: When this post inevitably disappears and I am banned, remember the kids who don't enjoy freedom of speech... in fact they can't speak at all because their throats are dried up from malnutrition and dehydration while you enjoy luxuries abundant and pass your blessing on to kids who also already enjoy modern comforts. Wouldn't it suck to wonder if you're going to wake up tomorrow? If you're going to find enough food to avoid dying of starvation in a ditch?

I know for me it would suck a lot more than taking yucky medication or losing my hair or being bored in the wing of a modern hospital.

When you donate 15k to kids, you know almost all that money is going to kids. When you donate 15k to africa, you have no idea where its going. People have been throwing millions of dollars at africa for years and its still a horrible situation. Why is this so you ask?
1. Massive politcal oppresion from many governments in africa.
2. Multinationals exploiting 3rd world resources and supporting said oppressive governments.

If you decide to donate to africa, NGOs are pretty much the only way to go unless you just want to give free stuff to dictators who will just take most international help in the end. You really need to know what you are doing when donating and these guys are really trying to help someone in something they know which is video games.
