More from Wolfowitz
..and he already sees what the Bush administration (and the US government in general) hasn't for years.
From the BBC:
The new head of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz, has called for a big increase in US aid to Africa.Mr Wolfowitz's comments came at the end of his first visit to the continent.
He signalled that he was willing to put pressure on Washington to increase aid, even to the point of reaching the international target - 0.7% GDP.
The move would mean more than trebling the US aid budget. Mr Wolfowitz also said he would like to see an end to farm subsidies.

The fact that a Paul Wolfowitz could see the need for a change in policy so quickly says volumes about our current failures.
