You are raising a very important issue: how can we think a global economy that includes a greater diversity of economic models, capitalism (well-tamed) being only one of them?

And how can we make them coexist without financial capitalism being the overarching dominant model as it is the case today?

It is reallya mazing how simple that would be.. Thsoe economic models need very few things to have a better standard of life than we ahve... of course taking into account their perspective of the world.

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.

A pleasure
