This is truly sad that this is what's happening in places auch as Rwanda. It's not fair that just because people are a different colour than others, that does not mean that they should suffer. And to drag it to the extent that these innocent people are dying of havving not enough money is just plain wrong... I don't even want to have the slightest knowing as to what it's like to live in poverty. It's just not right. Oh, and the person who came up with the bir money ordeal is truly a dush-bag. They're sooo stupid beacuse now that maney has come to be a large amount in everyone's lives, innocent people are dying. Especially the infants who can't fend for themselves.
