Question

People that are in extreme poverty are barely able to survive. With all the advances in technology, medicine and education, these parts of the world are falling farther and farther behind. This is because they cannot afford these things to have the access to them. The world has become very greedy. It is all about making money for oneself and often not about helping others. I do not believe the poverty will be eradicated. Someone is always going to be at the bottom as rich nations get richer and the cost of living gets higher. I do believe that we should be able to eradicate extreme poverty but not with just the measure of the 0.7% request. I believe to fully eradicate extreme poverty it will have to be more than that. Rich nations should not have a problem fulfilling this request however; greed shows its ugly head. It is also essentially making a country better off than what they were, so what if they prosper with that help? That is more competition. Money isn't the only thing that is needed to help. We need to educate the people and help them to manage money and their economies.
