My opinion would be:Aid provides a lifeline to the world's most desperate people. Even if it has some downsides, its benefits outweigh its costs

Yes, it is true that if we just give aid over and over again to the people we would potentially make the people become too dependant and unwilling to create a solution for their problem. But, this can be controlled by including education as part of the aid rather than putting 100% materialistic things as the aid.
