which problem would you choose to rid the world of? As always, poverty for me. I want all the people in the world to be prosperous and financially free. How about you ?

For woman to be able to get child support with no problems. There are too many women having problem getting child support from men. The men get away with this way too easily. There are some laws that they could change to make it easier on the women. There are a lot of things I would like to change in the world. For some reason that is the first thing that came to mind. I like your idea to change or rid poverty. There are also too many people living in poverty as well. It's crazy when you think about people who rich and then think about the people who are living in poverty. When people are owning two houses or more, when there are people who are homeless. I don't think that is the way God intended it to be.

It would be excellent if that could happen. I like the idea of getting rid of poverty. I went to Cape Town earlier this year and saw terrible poor areas. I liked the wealthy coastal locations most of all but I felt I had to visit a township. A guide showed my toddler son and I around it. The houses looked like shacks and were mostly in poor repair. However an Irish charity had built a number of new homes that were lovely. The rent for one of those per month was less than one night in the guest house I was staying in. The people were friendly and welcoming. I was able to take photos and speak to the people that lived there. I would get rid of all war and make the world a peaceful place. Every country in the world would be safe so all the people could have a chance of happiness. I think it would be lovely for a country like Israel not have anyone bombing, fighting of hating another person. Never again would something like World War I or II happen. People would have to respect all different religions and cultures. My sister asked for world peace for Christmas one year. It is something I would love to have along with getting with of poverty.

I will pick to resolve all conflicts from the world so that there are no more wars, terrorisms, people killing people for no reasons, etc. It is really sad to see how people are dying for nothing.
