Help Africa by not helping them

In a surprising twist of humor, The Onion takes a stab at whether or not it would help Africa if we didn’t help them at all.

This quote is gold:

“The main thing is we don’t want to rob them of their culture. We don’t want to introduce plumbing and electricity and housing ad doorknobs because that’s gonna take away what it means to be inherently African.”

Seriously, how do they keep a straight face when doing this? Haha.
