What I Think We Should Do to Combat AIDS

The best possible solution, in my opinion, would be to combine of all of the past solutions from my previous post; government funding only if they recognized the magnitude of AIDS and made it their number one priority with the government funding labs trying to find a cure and educating prevention and treatment. There is no reason it should not be; how does the government expect to grow if their workforce is nearly obsolete? These African countries seem to be more worried about war, guns, education and rebuilding their towns and cities. If a government is worried about purchasing weapons who do they expect to fight for them when their population is dying or caring for their family members while they sit in their air-conditioned suites feasting on food and drinking ice cold beverages? We need another world power to help these African countries set their priorities straight and set up a financial plan to fund the treatment and prevention of AIDS we could see some serious progress. America is already seen as the "big brother" in the world, so we might as well act the part and help out these struggling nations. A cure to AIDS is not a sure shot thing, but we should give it a chance. The amount of lives we are putting at risk for not helping is huge. Helping is the best thing we can do and we must make sure we leave no stone unturned.
