A POVERTYVISION AND POVERTY WORLD TIMES GLOBAL PROJECT
I would like to ask
Chinese people to excuse me.
By DANIEL AMARILIO - THE POVERTY WORLD TIMES

It is so Easy to Defeat The Poverty - The Book
I would like to ask Chinese people to excuse me, because I allowed
myself to paraphrase their famous thought, saying that if a hungry man
knocks at you door begging for food, you’d better give him a fishing rod and
send him to fish. I recommend: teach the poor man how to fish and buy the
fish. This way he’ll have money for other things, not only for food,
especially if he gets the ownership of a definite area where there is a lot
of fish. If a hungry man gets the exclusive right to fish at a definite
coast, he will have to hire more hungry people and this way he will start
helping other families. What is the conclusion we can make after
paraphrasing this famous, very simple and logical thought?
Only one, but very important conclusion: to help is not the right way to
eliminate the poverty and hunger in the world, the right one is
manufacturing and marketing. Instead of spending milliard dollars on
subsidizing countries, which are poor and undeveloped, much more sensible
decision is to give them an exclusive right of producing a simple product
and to provide for a world market of their product. How many products do we
need, then? – Few hundred. one or two for every country in the world – those
products will be added to their present manufacture and production. I
consider that the rich countries also should get an exclusive production
right for one product, because in those countries there are a lot of poor
people also. If this comes true, rich people will become richer, because the
poor people will become better consumers and will be able to buy products
they can’t afford at the moment. Just imagine every country from the ex
Soviet Union, from Eastern Europe or Asia and Africa, to become exclusive
producers for the whole world of o ne simple product, on conditions (see
“The Plan”) and in accordance with the World’s Common Micro Market. This way
the countries will be able to give work to many hundred thousands of people
and will gain million dollars income every year. Of course, this income
should be invested in creation of socio-economics base in the countries.
Besides, and no less important: the world peace and the democracy will be
strengthened.
By opening this site, we appeal to all the countries to give a helping hand
to us, together to create the biggest peace project. It is completely a
socio-economics project, very simple and logical and its realization depends
only on the political leaders of democratic countries and mostly on the G7.
If the World Bank and the United Nations Organization take part in this
project, their power will double and even triple, and all poor countries
will forget they had ever been poor…
