I think the conclusion of this article addresses poverty from a fairly guiltless standpoint, but I feel that the injustices done came from somewhere. The solution they propose, namely "The international community should endeavor-by strengthening the international financial system, through trade, and through aid-to help the poorest countries integrate into the world economy...". I do not think this is a creative or viable solution; it just doesn't fit the complexity and multifacetedness of the problem.

Someone's blog about the threat of World War 3, the nuclear apocolypse, multinational control by banks, and the hope that the people will rise up. Pretty silly towards the end with the taoist stuff, could have done without this to make it more credible.
