If modern anthropology is to be believed
all human life originates in Africa. So, the thought occurs to me, if our ancestors were capable of getting their fingers out and walking somewhere less shite, then modern Africans have got no excuse.
Besides, we pay more in over seas aid than we spend on the Royal Navy in this country, so we're not doing too badly by them really. If we didn't buy all their coffee, they'd have no money for AIDS medicine. What are they going to do? Live off coffee?
