I totally agree with Cody G. and his piece, "Devastation in Africa." Africa is in great need because of HIV and our country should get involved and help.

Our country should not hesitate to help with the AIDS epidemic in Africa just because we won't profit from it. America is among the most powerful nations in the world and we pride ourselves in helping our fellow man. Therefore, we should use our resources and help Africa's sick who are dying every day and their families who are being torn apart. Thank you, Cody, for your plea and for helping make others aware of this epidemic.
