What kind of debt at 50 yrs from the end of colonialism ???
In 19th imperial Japan became an idustrial power in less than 30 yrs. Germany had the capability to recover from the apocalypse of world war II in 20 yrs.
China turned its status of third world nation to economic titan in 60 yrs. India (although much more slowly) is on the way.
AFRICA doesn't lack resources (much more natural resources than Europe), and doesn't lack manpower (60% of population is young).
So, taking in account those factors........no, i don't help Africa. And i don't feel guilty for that. I don't have any moral duty to do (i'm not a missionary). My ideology (i'm conservative) is in favour of Europe.
Without the historical presence of europeans, Africa would be (today) exactly as it is.
