We, developed countries, have always "raped" other undeveloped countries to live very well. Instead of investing on this poor countries, we just take all that can give us. Is there a another way of living well for us?

Well, I think you might go over this one with your English teacher and see if you can't clear it up a little. But I think I want to answer what I think you were trying to ask. I think you are saying that the developed countries of today have gotten that development largely from taking unfair advantage of underdeveloped countries. And you ask whether there is not a better way.

I am not sure I would agree to the "raped" theory, but there has been plenty of exploitation of the less developed, scientifically and specifically in terms of literacy and communication capabilities, and the advantage has been to those with the higher technology.

But the Internet is literally everywhere. I have seen pictures (and I cannot believe they are fakes; I choose not to believe they are fakes) of people with laptop computers which they are powering by a stationary bicycle in order to be in contact with the rest of the world. So knowing what is possible has come to the whole world.

But there is poverty everywhere, just as there is opportunity everywhere, and making the opportunity work against poverty and for people -- rather than against poor people, which too often happens -- that is very important.

We are sending our INFORMATION all over the world, and with it comes a very, very important new thing: the world marketplace. With air parcel service going practically everywhere, and the Internet connecting you within seconds to order forms for anything, suddenly we can do things like buy authentic hand-crafted treasures that used to only be possible for tourists with big budgets to travel long distances to get. And the folk art and collectibles industries are all booming, booming, booming on the Internet.

And then there's the world of publication. Do you know what it means that people everywhere can buy a book printed in their own language or in any language they want to study, or a copy of each, and probably a great many books that they can have that way. And they can look at anything on the net, and push it through a translating program, and read it in their own language. And they can learn any language they feel would serve their interests.

Lot of English students out there.

Yeah, there's a better way. And we are doing it!
