Poverty, corruption and crime are no joke. These are the 3 main reason why immigrants leave their home contries. The last 2 is mostly why my parents decided to leave ours. Corruption and crime is eating our home contry appart. When you include extreme poverty to the mix, it is just brutal to the body, mind and soul. When these people realise this, that is when they will risk anything to flee somewhere else. Look at the cubans that flee in poorly kept together rafts for example. There are countless stories of cubans perishing to shark attacks....

Giving money to an already corrupt goverment wont fix anything, it will make it worse if anything.
