Africa has received something like $1bn in aid over the last 50 years.
I think you made a typo of a couple orders of magnitude there… You really think Africa has received only an average of $50m a year? The Millennium Villages Project alone has received that much from a single donor.
Typo, sorry, $1T not $1B. (The other figures aren’t out by the same three orders of magnitude: 10^12/50/10^9 really is about 20, and 10^12/50/(2x10^12) really is about 1%.) Thanks for catching this; I’ll edit my comment.
