#1 I think what Oxfam is trying to say is: when the sky is not green, it is blue.

Typical of an NGO to complain when donations' patterns do not fit their particular agenda.

#2 So their ideal is to keep all poor countries equally miserable? I've always found that concentrating your efforts on one problem, and solving it, has the side effect of freeing up more resources for solving the NEXT problem you tackle.

#4 They could start by cutting their overhead. Doesn't Oxfam's head make 7 figures?
