Gary Haugen: The hidden reason for poverty the world needs to address now

7:53 "Poor women and girls between the ages of 15 and 44, [domestic abuse and sexual violence] lead to more death and disability than [...] Malaria", how is he getting that number? Is that counting rape-induced HIV cases- which would require those to be over 50% of female HIV cases worldwide just to break even with Malaria- or is it the "between 15 and 44" because most Malaria deaths are children?
Actually, I can't imagine that could be true without both of those being factors in making that calculation look drastically different from what Wikipedia would imply. Unless Malaria incidence has been cut to a fraction of it's 2002 levels, which I suppose is possible.

Here are the causes of poverty, first breeding continuing the poverty. Second money. Third the elite and corporations. In a nutshell, and fourth government and fifth the globalists.

I have an idea. People in poverty should have fewer children. That way there will be, fewer deaths, less work in child rearing, more work towards economic advancement, and less competition for the resources in the area.

The hidden reason for poverty is USURY!!!   USURY is forbidden in all three monotheistic religions but what does that matter in a Godless world?

Adding more laws and law enforcement doesn't stop the root of the problem. Those bad rapists weren't born bad. They were often mistreated in their youth, or disrespected, or had little that helped them gain personal strength and respect enough to treat others respectfully. It is money in the western world; it is the western world's power- their way of using people, taking more than they need, and destroying the environment- that hurts people in other countries. If people in the western world were to just be humans and focus on nature and not demand so many resources and be so competitive with business to produce more, then there would be a huge shift. But no one wants to give up the system of money if they have wealth! It works for them! Why would they change?! It breaks my heart that people believe that putting a bandaid or doing intensive surgery will heal the wound long term, rather than stopping the cause of the wound. We live in the same world as we did in the past: where nobody has enough self respect, and ignore what truly matters: relationships, people, health, and nature. So many expectations. The system is inequal. People shouldn't have to rely on other people's donations to survive. People shouldn't have to pay to live.

it has nothing to do with compassion, it is all about importance of law enforcement

churchs of any religion are living in poverty,there's followers. because their followers are ignorants.

God created men. Colt made them equal.
Even under "the protection of law" as you phrased it, you said the average response time was 10 minutes. Typically, murders, and probably rapes, can be committed before then. The police force serves as a deterrent to crime, NOT for stopping them as they happen.
If everyone had a gun, they would never (almost) need to be used, because the certainty that their victim can defend themselves would serve as a deterrent.

Several minutes for rape, 20 seconds for child labor and slavery. {CURRENT_YEAR}

No mention of the Satanic Rothschild Criminal Bangsters? ...mm, Oh sorry yeah, it's a TED Tallk my mistake. "Compassion", right.

7:38 and what did the god you were praying to do?

To think people are still religious, if a god exists it doesn't deserve worship.

why do people in these countries have so many kids when they can barely feed themselves? its selfish.

That moment when you are watching on a 3k laptop and are getting a 6k PC soon... i feel bad.

sounds like utopian talk. these investment resources and transfer expertises into the developing countries would only turn to another exploitation of the developing countries

Law is a business. And business is about money being made for a select few at the cost of the manys health and safety. We need to transition from the monetary system all together.

I think more people should listen to Jacque Fresco, an inventor who has worked his entire life to develop solutions to human misery through science and technology. Search him on Google or YouTube some of his lectures. He directs a small Florida-based think tank called The Venus Project.

This guy is a complete joke. This ignorant, moralistic crap adds absolutely nothing to the discussion on global poverty. Poverty is always an economic and political problem. A very real problem, with very real solutions. Poverty is what happends when you strip people (or countries) of their power and exploit them for their economic value. It's a side effect of a system that serves to enrich the rich, at the expense of the poor. It's not being solved for the same reasons that war or climate change are not being solved: because the people with the power to solve it are the same people who benefit by NOT solving the problem. Sound simple? That's because it is.
