But of course.. it is a disaster if you want to eliminate accute poverty ...to raise it above 2$ a day... impossible..
¡Nevertheless I would like to remember that not everybody live in a de facto capitalist system. A lot of agriculture areas in Africaa nd Asia have cultures and modus-vivendi completely different thant those in city -capitalistic societies.
The fact that globalization in cities is good for survival is shown by the fact that people emigrate from towns to big cities.
But capiltaism in big cities can not erradicate accute proverty .. and more improtantly it does not contribute to the increase in wealth.being of non-capitlistic rural communities.. a very easy thing if they are kept out of capitalism and receive some smart help.... sanitation anybody????
But that would mean accepting that capitalism is not the answer to everything... no way.
A pleasure I therefore claim to show, not how men think in myths, but how myths operate in men's minds without their being aware of the fact. Levi-Strauss, Claude
And how can we make them coexist without financial capitalism being the overarching dominant model as it is the case today?

it is actually lack of sanitation and in some cases water together with the sufferign normally assocaited with lack of painkillers at the alte stages before dying.
Other than that... well that's it... Of course if you look at things form our perspective children not going at school is something awful or lack of commodities is somehting awful or lack of this or that... Also we look at their lack of security in the food as soemthin bad... but populations and food go ahnd in hand and they really ahve lifes.. jsut differently.
On the other lack our lack of complex family structures and relations do not make us think we are poor.
Maybe we can disucss abou painkillers.. but sanitation and clean water is basically all the things I can come up they need to keep on thriving.
