I just noticed this comment now.

I still haven't seen a shred of evidence that ongoing "aid" of any kind was ever helpful, and huge volume of evidence against it.

I've addressed The Effectiveness of Developing World Aid previously. What "huge volume of evidence" do you have in mind?

Tricking people into giving away their money is not overcoming bias, it is increasing bias.

Why do you think that "tricking people into giving away their money" is relevant to my posting?
