Once again, however, I can safely predict that the media and general public will judge Live 8 not by its long-term successes (which there will likely be very few) but rather by how many millions
of dollars the rockstars can manage to raise. Hope springs eternal that if we can just gather some magic amount of money and throw it at Africa everything will manage to work itself out.

How do you fix a problem? Instead of just treating the symptoms of
poverty like hunger, we need to treat the causes of poverty. Do
something that works.
