Modest Proposal
Ever since the 1980’s technology has become a major aid by western society to developing countries around the world. Governments have provided these developing nation with medium or high technological tools which should benefit there society and create work for the people.
When developing nations receive low technological tools such as saws and shovels they are able to use and maintain these tools over a long time period. More jobs will be created in these developing countries as more people begin to use the low technology tools provided by the west.
The highly advanced technological tools which our modern society is providing Africa with are one of the main reasons why these developing nations are struggling to flourish. These tools such as chainsaws, often take away jobs as they require less labor and more capital. Furthermore the high technology capital provided by the west requires money to maintain which developing nations obviously don’t have.
Developing countries such as those in Africa have been creating burdens for the westerners which they do not wish to carry anymore. The west is fed up of dealing with issues such as illegal immigration, disease spreading and costs due to economic and social aid.
The hope is that the weapons will be miss- used by the government leaders in Africa, and due to their race to control the continent with weapons they will use these weapons against each other.
The soldiers receiving these weapons from the government will be unable to operate the high technology which will lead to further accidental killings and destruction of the continent.
The only effective solution to this is to send technologically highly advanced weapons to Africa. The result of this will be that the African nations “eradicate” each other, leaving only the strongest leaders and their armies to control Africa.
Although this process may take a few years the benefits will outweigh the costs of this “project”.
Once the African nations have “finished each other off”, western corporations will move in and drain the remaining resources in Africa, not only will there be a large decrease in the people living below the poverty line, so, less than a dollar a day, but there will be a large decrease in the world’s population.
After the west has robbed the rest of Africa’s resources they will be able to re grow resources and other necessary commodities that were not affordable before due to the costs created by Africa. Governments in Europe will be able to earn charity money as government revenue and will further exploit Africa.
Africa will be the setting of a new capital intensive workplace. Nations from across the world will be able to open factories etc. and create more jobs for people in their nations: this will hugely decrease poverty
Due to the Location of Africa, just south of Europe, it will be easy and cheap to transport capital and labor from Western Europe all across Africa.
Obviously high technology has the opposite effect on developing nations than it should. Instead of creating jobs and helping the economy, it puts inexperienced workers in danger and takes a way jobs that people could be doing.
My plan is to exploit the lack of knowledge these developing nations have about this high technology and use it against them. By sending them weapons the western society will be digging a grave for the entire African continent.
