A telling article.

Consider the fact that, in 2006, an oil exporting nation has50 million(?) illiterate people!

How much corruption does this take? a pile!

See why conservatives balk at greenlighting African Aid?

I do the math this way:

52 / 138 = 39% not 43%

Still, it's a lot of folks who can't read!
