Lack of jobs in Swaziland forces women into prostitution
I figured this would be an appropriate topic to cover since we recently watched a video on Swaziland. Women in Swziland say it is nearly impossible to find a job right now in Swaziland. The living conditions are horrible, and many peole are without food. Women feel that their only other option in order to be able to provide food for themselves is prostitution. This is also incredibly scary considering one in every four people there has HIV/AIDS. This is very unfortunate and so sad to see what some people put themselves through just to have food.

I volunteer at Feed My Starving Children, which is an organization that packs and ships food to starving countries and Swaziland was one of them. I think we, as a wealthy nations, needs to do everything in our power to help to poor citizens of Swaziland. If this were a country in Europe we would be on it in a second, but no since its in Africa we can't be bothered.
