And that’s with billions pouring in from most nations to “help”. No one asks where the money has gone, do they? They should be on level with the rest of the world by now and not needing aid.

to be fair about this point. How many of the billions do you actually think even make it to the countries they're supposedly going to? And of those that make it, how much is then spent by warlords and corrupt governments and never makes it to the people? Foreign aid in general is a bad idea because of this kind of stuff.

Yes, that’s my point. Though, it is still faulted in part with the citizens for not demanding answers, justice, etc. If you let yourself be ruled like that then part of it does lie with you.
