Make poverty history
Posted by: Kris Dev, Co-Founder, International Transparency & Accountability Network

It is possible to make poverty history, provided, we follow some very basic and fundamental rules to life.

There is enough resources in the world, to meet all the essential needs of all living beings including human beings. But there is not enough to meet the greed of human beings. Animals have a level playing field - they kill when they are hungry and never save for the future. But man is greedy to amass wealth and save enormously for the future.

If we should make all transactions transparent on the web, through a single genuine bank account for all and ban currency circulation; then, there will be total transparency and accountability and most problems of greed would get exposed; and the very fact that others would come to know of your greed, as all accounts are transparent would deter people form indulging in greedy practices.

This is one sure way, poverty can be made history. Everyone would try to make an honest living and contribute to the growth of society and self.
