Is it possible to eliminate poverty? In all likelihood, no.
Is it possible to eliminate extreme poverty, where you have starving kids infected with malaria with no clean water or proper sanitation living in a shack exposed to the elements without electricity? Sure we can. We're just not trying. Or can't be bothered to try.
Yes we are, we are trying! The UN is in Darfur spending a billion dollars on hotel reservations and office space. They are providing tarps to the people there too. A little is better than nothing right? You got a better solution? If not, then shut up. Because a little is better than nothing.
