The first person I see....

at least people are trying to do something even if it doesn't work. it's better than being a dick and sitting there telling everyone it'll never work but never coming up with a better idea.

 

he isn't trying to do shit apart from revive his flagging "career"

 

and there was a little bit about africa in there or something yeah we'll go with that.

not everyone does stuff just to make money out of it or for their career.

 

you know how you say it's only a publicity stunt.........


it's meant to be, I've heard a lot of people say it's a publicity stunt in the past few days, and the reason is that it is, to say that in a desparaging way is silly, it's a huge act of political posturing as though to say that the priorities of those people are better than the priorities thatn the people who have power to make descisions





it being a publicity stunt is a good thing, and I don't think geldof would need something like this to "restart his career" seems as though on name recognition alone he could get his ass rolling in the industry......

 

yeah they do.....

 

if you took more than five minutes researching it you'd notice that the idea isnt to get money it's to drop the debt to third world countries, sort out trading laws and double aid going to africa.

 

Meh still it'll never happen, i doubt this will help but hey

 

well the dropping of third world debt is basically confirmed, if aid doesn't increase the 8 most powerful people in the world will be perceived as being incredibly selfish so it will probably happen. but as for the trading agreements and so on i also doubt they will do anything.

 

it's a publicity stunt, there is nothing about money or anything, it's a demonstration...

 

Some cynical yet true points:


Dropping the debt just means the fat cats have more money for cars and mansions

Trade links are controlled by the governments so the money will go to them

Aid will in fairness possibly help

Looking at the statistics many countries are the same if not worse off despite Live Aid

The fact that people only seem to care about africa when celberitys and wrist bands are on offer really says something about the state of society

In conclusion I still hate Live 8

Heres a link to some excellent viewpoints which i agree with entirely
