1/ The world would become a different place if the advanced democracies of the world agreed to eradicate deep global poverty over the next 10 years. Why doesn’t it happen? Because we aren’t insisting that it happen. We ourselves need to become laser focused on what we really want

2/ The economic and political systems of the world are determining who we become, when it is we who should be determining what they are. They are our masters for only one reason: we have forgotten that they are our servants.

3/ There is no propaganda, no technology, no money and no governmental power that will be able to stop the tide of evolutionary advancement in the direction of love, once enough people awaken to the realization that that’s the only reason we’re here.

We can complain & do when greedy ppl in power funnel money to their friends. They keep giving $ to the top 2% that they take from the bottom 98%. Until the greed of capitalism is checked, this will not change. It's conservative policies at the root of all evil in America.

I remember at a conference of European Agricultural Ministers at Rome some decades back, when all excitement was over the launch of WTO, I had called for global treaty on eradicating hunger and poverty !

Completely agree, but the pandemic has served to concentrate wealth in the hands of billionaires. We need to shift $ from the super rich to the people. We should have a 90% tax rate for incomes over a billion $. Same with inheritance taxes. Re-distribute now.

Yes ... and someone like you needs to tell us that it is possible ... and then we need to tell others ... and they need to tell still others ... We've been told that it can't happen that way ... for a very long time!

10 yrs? By the numbers of the fireworks that took place just across America last night, it's evident there is plenty of money everywhere being mismanaged. #Poverty could be eliminated within a year w the right people given the task to complete.
