It isn't ok though.....No individual is at fault for where they are born....the circumstances in which they are born and the genetics they were born with. Then again....while it isn't ok it isn't my fault or concern either.....other than a desire for reasonable humanitarian progress. Edited by Stirlingsays (03 Oct 2018 2.14pm)

Edited by Stirlingsays (03 Oct 2018 2.14pm) Unfortunately, human progress will mean the end of planet Earth as we know it. We cannot have 9 billion wealthy consumers. 20 billion poor Asians and African will Eat up the planet's resources, including Europe's, like a raging fire within 200 years unless we act to control population size and spread. Being poor will be the least of our problems.
