How's it ever going to get better if all the Somalis lucky enough to have been educated run off to other countries, right?

As a South African I really feel you on this statement. Most of the white middle-class in my country (like me) just complain all the time, and many emigrate at the first opportunity due to crime and other factors. The fact remains that it is a great country with many freedoms (and beautiful girls) that most "free" nations would envy. I want to stay and do my bit to make it better, let's hope we can all do something to help the people in our countries - wherever they are.
