Exposure to a life you don’t want to live can teach you a little bit about yourself, and the world, if you let it happen. July 22, 2010, at 12:45 am — Blogs | debate | Writers' Debate — debate / government / Poor / poverty / THEME: poverty
We post an assertion to be argued for or against, and ask all of our writers to come to the table for a good honest debate. Comments are now open to all readers. ASSERTION: Neither is it the government’s duty, nor is the government well-equipped, to make broad attempts to lift people out of poverty. The concept of profit in a capitalist society is essentially devoid of ethical considerations. There is one goal: increase net profit. Profit sucks out the soul of humanity: any help needed comes with a price tag; all price tags come with an included and invisible mark up (pure-hearted charity excluded). |
