My experience with arguments for ridding global poverty has led to responses of the nature that this idea is utopian. It also has a lot of similarities to the nationalism/socialsm movements of the Hitler regime.
Is something like eliminating global poverty feasable? Will those less fortunate not always exist? Are we just raising the poverty standards?
And yes, there is extreme poverty in the world, where people are malnurished and dying. That classification of people have always existed through history. Granted they have changed, there was a time when other parts of the world had extreme poverty. But throughout this "classification" of people's existance, over thousands of years and countless rich and powerfull regimes no solution has been found.
What are some projections of poverty reduction if we do commit what organizations such as one.org suggest the solution is?
Thank you very much for your time and concern.
