ladies and gentlemen i have always wondered
why the elites in the different countries of the world do not do not see this
who would lose if all the people on the globe led a decent life
of having two thousand two thousand five hundred calories per day for an adult person
who would lose if all the people each day we are getting enough calories support their bodies
who would lose if all the immunizable diseases that afflict people were immunized against
who would lose if that one was achieved for all the people in the world that need immunization
for all the immunizable diseases got it what would be the problem
who would lose if all young people children accessed education to achieve literacy
numeracy and skills as a minimum
who'd lose if all the human beings
had a healthy unit within the radius of five kilometers from where one lives
who would live if all human beings had access to clean electricity away from charcoal firewood
and dirty kerosene who would lose if every person other person had a well-paying job
who'd lose if every family on the globe had a three
decent a three bedroom decent house for each family
who would lose if each person had access to clean water
who would lose if every person on the globe did not have to worry about war
about terrorism and about crime who would lose if ever a producer
of a service or a good that is needed for use in the world had a right of access to markets
who'd lose if all the countries in the world had good transport
and other elements of infrastructure
who would lose if all of us insisted on protecting our mother nature so that it can also look after
us to what extent would this effort at global affluence stimulate business how much cement
how much steel how much copper how much food would we need and how would all that impact business
if we aimed at global affluence how much would this impact business positively
why then do we only have bad businessmen who do not have efficient spectacles that
can see these business opportunities that are implied if we aim at global affluence
therefore in my opinion parasitism is the only obstacle to global affluence prosperity and peace
