I don't see AIDS as a continental problem. It's more global, and we are on this globe, right? You live in a cave if you don't know that AIDS is here too.



No [censored], really?

I think the US should lead the search for a cure. I don't think trying to save those with AIDS is going to get us anywhere. I haven't read about where this $15 billion is going, so I shouldn't come out in support of it. But I think that part of our responsibilities as world leaders is to invest in a cure for a disease that affects the entire globe.



A cure wouldn't be necessary if people would stop acting like animals.

Yes, it would be nice to say "it's not our fault, so why should we lose money because of it", but I think we're dipping into 'inhumane' territory if we do that.


I have no problem being "inhumane" when it comes to this.
