You're not very bright, your children's book was aimed at Stalinist policies in Russia. Your ignorance is offensive. Don't continue to wallow in your low grade propaganda. The US has just been raped by war profiteers and bankers and you think socialism doesn't work. How did you get to be so stupid?
Germany, Sweden, France, Ireland, Spain, Venezuela, GB, Cuba (despite a bunch of fuckwits in Miami trying to invade and fuck with the country, and america's illegal sanctions).
Why don't you do your own research instead of assuming US propaganda from 50 years ago is true.
Whats not reported in the media, including the American media, is all the good, the aid, financial and otherwise that the USA is providing around the world.
I see where you are going with this..thats why i believe we should help them develop but in a way that it does not compare with the carbon footprint of an actual american. We could start by NEVER introducing them to cars,bikes instead and starting a population control programs like planned parenthood and such.
We need to think ahead: these bottom billion are the people who are children may have to deal with. I don't mean to stigmatize them but its the truth. We need to educate them, and show them how to make a peaceful living. Any ideas?
You aren't thinking this through, as is already written, it's a question of priorities - these countries are so poor, the people have nothing to choose FROM. That's why the primary priority must be sustainable economic growth for these countries - then people can use their minds for more than worrying about their next meal.
Priorities matter. How many residents of the countries of the bottom do you think are more concerned about "the complexity of choice, life, and the relational aspects of being" than about ensuring that they are able to be fed, and about not dying from disease or conflict. I'd strongly urge you to read Collier's book "The Bottom Billion". It will explain why so many of the Western societies now have the luxury of worrying about trivialities like "androcentrism" and "consumerism".
