Frightening facts about the world we live in.
Here are some frightening facts about the world we live in how millions of people live today...
- Less than one 1% of what the world spent every year on weapons was needed to put every child into school by the year 2000 and yet it didn't happen
- Half the world -- nearly three billion people -- live on less than two dollars a day.
- Nearly a billion people entered the 21st century unable to read a book or sign their names
- The poorer the country, the more likely it is that debt repayments are being extracted directly from people who neither contracted the loans nor received any of the money
- 20% of the population in the developed nations, consume 86% of the worlds goods
- In 1960, the 20% of the world's people in the richest countries had 30 times the income of the poorest 20% -- in 1997, 74 times as much
- An analysis of long-term trends shows the distance between the richest and poorest countries was about :
3 to 1 in 1820
11 to 1 in 1913
35 to 1 in 1950
44 to 1 in 1973
72 to 1 in 1992
- The developing world now spends $13 on debt repayment for every $1 it receives in grants
- The 48 poorest countries account for less than 0.4 per cent of global exports.
- The combined wealth of the world's 200 richest people hit $1 trillion in 1999; the combined incomes of the 582 million people living in the 43 least developed countries is $146 billion
- 7 Million children die each year as a result of the debt crisis. 8525038 children have died since the start of the year 2000 [as of March 24, 2001]
- Today, across the world, 1.3 billion people live on less than one dollar a day; 3 billion live on under two dollars a day; 1.3 billion have no access to clean water; 3 billion have no access to sanitation; 2 billion have no access to electricity
- A mere 12 percent of the world's population uses 85 percent of its water, and these 12 percent do not live in the Third World.
Frightening and shameful isnt it!

America, among other states in the world, has been in war the most since world war II...

I would have no problem erasing all debt...If the money was used for education and welfare, not making the leaders of those nations wealthy
