Will Bill Gates help poor children ???

I have great hopes that people like Bill Gates actually will help poor children around the world:

I do have the following reservations:

• Such programs destroy the local cultures and replace them with ours (sociocide);
• Such programs destroy the local economies and replace them with ours (econocide); and
• Such programs destroy the local political systems and replace them with ours (politicide).

So, my underlying question is: How do we define "helping poor children"? If the definition is "try to make them all like Americans, and open up their countries to neoliberal exploitation", I don't think that is "help". That is enabling the wholesale theft of their resources while allowing us to feel good about it.

It's more or less the mentality by which the United States "helped" the so-called American Indians become like white men, and we all know how THAT turned out. Take a look at America in general: we have abandoned our poor children and shifted the nation's resources to the ruling class and their accomplices in the military. If we cannot "help" our own poor children, how can we help other people's poor children?
