Independent malariologists believe it kills two million people a year, mainly children under 5 and 90 percent of them in Africa. Until it was overtaken by AIDS in 1999, it was Africa&#039;s leading killer. One in 20 African children dies of malaria, and many of those who survive are brain-damaged. Each year, 300 to 500 million people worldwide get malaria.&quot;</u></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://www.rosenblog.com/2004/04/14/everything_you_know_is_wrong.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.rosenblog.com/2004/04/14/everything_you_know_is_wrong.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.rosenblog.com/2004/04/14/everything_you_know_is_wrong.html</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>1/2 a billion patieance a year and no cure or medicine. Why is that. I know why its because there poor and no one give a $hit about them. It is very F_D UP. Instead of investing billions to save GM from itself the USFG should invest in a cure for Malaria. Yes I understand that we have spend 60 Trillion ruly to stop poverty, but medicine is differnt. We could actaully stop this. Also I think the way we provide welfare is very bad, and quite posibily a racist plot to create a permant under class (yes I did proboly then jump off clif, but I am not the only person that thinks it was coincidental that the same congress that passed the civil rights akt passed welfare and the great socity with the Knowing that it would destory poor comunites. There are even congresional testomony on this point)&nbsp; If this make me a commie I guess so be it. Im not I practice free maket captialism every day. I just realize that there are market ineficancies that need to be corrected. Also I do realize that &quot;Corrected&quot; is bio-polititcal. The great thing about Post/Hyper Modernism is that we are not concerned with absolutes. bio-power is not 100% bad. I think its how I can respect Hardt and Negri and disagree with there Alternative. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Mr. Joe, Did you read the reveiw of Empire in the National Reveiw?
