  • @deliciousonionsoup Don't you understand? Its not about the money system, its that what we have done is thrown money at the situation and it doesn't seem to help. Real poverty can only be addressed by being REAL friends to those who don't have friends.

  • @deliciousonionsoup The money system isn't fair. We need to do away with it, altogether. I hope you come to realize this.

  • good thing smosh donated 10.000.00$ to poverty

  • @deliciousonionsoup 1 John 4.18 - there is no fear in love. if we are fearful about what MIGHT happen then what needs to happen never will, until those fears are diminished.

  • Hope this can complete the question of defining poverty, I've gathered two dozens of academic and professional sources to arrive at a broad definition that shows the complexity and diversity of the issue!

    Have a look at my page, and I hope you will find this useful (go on poverties(dot)org and look at definitions)

    All comments and suggestions to improve it are welcome !

  • Mother Theresa said the great poverty in America is spiritual, not economic.

  • Important video.

  • I use this video to go to sleep it is like so relaxing with the background music...he should hipnotize people..

  • Another thing is that this man talks about this subject within the current money system and doesn't look at the current money system or at changing it. There will always be poor in the current money system. There will always be fear in the current money system. We need to create an equal money system.

  • One thing that wasn't expressed here - the fear that one has about helping another, the fear one has of inviting that other into your home, the fear of what will happen, the fear of what might happen. That in itself is something to look at.
