It is hard to see how we could be more utter
failures about poverty than we are. We
KNOW what to do about it, we HAVE the resources, we UNDERSTAND the second and
third order effects of poverty, we COMPREHEND WELL that reducing poverty
actually REDUCES overpopulation.
And yet we throw up our hands every year.
Or attach some ridiculous precondition on any
real effort.
We could not be much farther away from Jesus’s
words and actions.
The privileged should have to trade places for
a week with the markedly unprivileged.
Much would change. MUCH.
