A better question to ask is how to help create wealth for all. So what would you do to help all people to become wealthy?

The question on how to end poverty got near 5000 replies. Mostly, without reading anywhere near most, happy Miss America world peace type answers. A report just released a couple days ago said dividing all the wealth in the world equally would give everyone about $20,000. The reality is that it is not a zero sum game so ending poverty is not about giving but about creating more.

I agree with you that question was dumb and so were alot of the answers (okay the questions I bothered to read). I honestly believe the answer is too reduce the population by about 5 billion people, and then become more focused on generating wealth in areas that are already established, ie where theres food, education etc.. Just change the whole nature of the way we are taught, there's far to much fighting in most parts of the world to do anything to teach them to live in harmony, just take a democratic ballot too see who dies. Most people would think this nuts, but it's better too have a billion well fed, educated people, then 6 billion half starved nuts
