We have that per capita income because we are a prosperous nation...People are helped best when they help them selves, like the old fish fishing thing.California is truly a screwball state hard to believe you are actually part of this country.
I heard it once said that when the asylums on the east coast were de regulated they bought them bus tickets to the west coast and let them loose on the streets of California cities....still got your ticket?


I don't know how you survive in the "city of brotherhood". I'd imagine you'd have been shot a long time ago given your racist attitudes toward foreigners. Not only a xenophobe, but a pretty blatant racist as well.

Considering that California is the richest state by far of the US--it would be the 6th richest nation in the world if it was considered a country to itself--I don't know where you get off saying the pure crap you spout. I guess it's more ignorant babbling from the village idiot.

Oh and if you want to see poverty up close and personal? Take a tour of the Appalachian mountains.


Your claims are totally contradictory. You ARE indeed all about exclusion of others. You are the very definition of xenophobia! Everything you state reeks of "me, my and myself". The poorest of the poor in Appalachian would be considered a grand "warlord" in some of the real poor regions of the world. You either are a xenophobe by choice or ignorance. The former can't be helped, so let's hope it's the latter so you can eventually be enlightened.

I'd say this is an investment to futher deplete AMERICAN tech jobs. If I had to sow/reap daily to feed my family and someone then offered me a 9k a year job in the support industry I think I would hop right on board.
Call me paranoid but I DO NOT see this as philanthropic, rather as a farming of future cheap tech labor.


You are absolutely pathetic! You're not paranoid, you're just an absolute xenophobe!

It's ok to have the USA have 40,000 USD per capita income, but it's not ok to improve the life styles of people earning $200 USD per capita income.

PATHETIC XENOPHOBE is all I can say.

No, it doesn't - that's Utopia and ain't gonna happen.

Laos' 2003 population = 5.9 million; per capita income = $320. And Laotians ranks about 25th on the “US immigration” chart" – approx. 171k - or less than 1% of the US population.

Following the Vietnam War, certain individuals from Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos were paroled into the United States and have remained in an indefinite immigration status since. (Hmong and Laotian refugees who supported the US during the Viet Nam war were eligible to become citizens of the US without onerous requirements, but this eleibility expired in 2001.) Subsequently, Section 586 of Public Law 106-429, Adjustment of Status for Certain Nationals of Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, provided for permanent immigration benefits to 5,000 eligible individuals from those three countries.

More than you wanted/needed to know, I’m sure, but escaping from Laos and making one’s way to the US is a bit harder than from, say, Cuba – and look how few of them make it over these days…

(Or “sediments” if you’ve been drinking red wine today.) :-)

C’mon – we’re talking about the Plain of Jars in Laos, an area we once bombed back into the Stone Age. You surely don't mean we should keep them there, right? If unexposed to 21st century basics like email or the Web - or, by extension, education, communication and commerce - what kind of message are we sending? And where should we draw the line - maybe stop 'em at electicity or indoor plumbing?

The Jhai Foundation is involved in much more than pedal-driven WiFi - - things such as medical supplies, medical training, children's schools and education, and sanitation in a region where Jhai claims the budget for local hospitals is $.50/person/year.

Should Laos' next generation be denied hope because they one day may compete with Americans in a global economy? W. Clement Stone wrote “Hope is the magic ingredient.” Should we take away theirs?
