PLOS Medicine asks "Which Single Intervention Would Do the Most to Improve the Health of Those Living on Less Than $1 Per Day?"
The responses range from recognizing our interconnectedness to direct cash gifts. I still like the Copenhagen Consensus as an answer to that question, because it has a bit more method to it than simply asking "experts."
If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?
