Wealth is relative, and most “poor” people don’t compare themselves to others halfway around the world; they compare themselves to those who are visible around them — in their own countries.[/quote]
If your standard for “poor” is relative to the population as a whole, we can give up on doing anything about poverty right now.
If you can come up with some absolute goals then progress is possible.
If your goal is “no one in the lower 10%” then it isn’t.[/quote]
Totally agree. There will ALWAYS be someone in the bottom 10%.
