Horrible organization of course, but better than nothing.

I do very much enjoy not having to worry about smallpox.

I rather miss the days when I used to worry about smallpox. Fun times. I want them back.

*Most* third-world NGOs are scams or at least ways to make a living for some middle-class denizens of the country in question. Not the big names that get all the western private donor money, of course. Although they too are ways to make a living for their employees. That, rather than the stated purpose, is where the bulk of the money goes. That and the glossy brochures. Printed here, of course. (And of course, the kind of money the west, especially the UN organizations, pays is a real problem whenever a place is really swarming in their people. Think peacekeeping troops and such here.)
