>>"1.3 billion people live on less than the equivalent of one dollar a day. Three billion people live on less than the equivalent of two dollars a day. Meanwhile, the world's 358 billionaires have more money combined than the annual incomes of countries with 45% of the world's people." (Hunger 1997, Bread for the World)<< Do you seriously believe that those 358 billionaires are the cause of the poverty that exists in the world? If all of the billionaires, and all of the millionaires disappeared tomorrow, those people would still be stuck under the same despotic political and religious systems they live under now. Their lot would be changed not one damn bit. Get real. You might as well be a billionaire, as far as they are concerned. Maybe your greed is the cause of it all.
