I from American and to be honest we're no different than any other country generally speaking. It's a lot going on in this world that we live in, it's all the same no matter who you are or where you are. I really don't know too much about Liberia except that I do know that it's a poor country. I've heard all types of stories but of course I would because my fiance' is from Liberia himself. I'm trying to come up with a solid plan to help these people who can't help themselves all because they're in no position to do so. It's not their fault that these people are helpless and hopeless because of their past and where they come from. They need HELP and so do you if you're going to down talk a country who has no other choice to do what's necessary in order for them to survive. What if the shoe was on the other foot? WHAT WOULD YOU DO?
