Well i was reading a article about britains richest people with assets of 800$ billion dollars
so,i was wondering that if these people should just share only 2.5% of there wealth as charity with poor
people around the world
so what may happen,i think there will be economic revolution with micro credits in poor countries
interest free loans to the poor as micro finance ...
for example:If every one would pay only 2.5% of 800Billion$ then it will
be 20Billion$ and i think 500$ for each familly would be enough so when you devide 20B into 500$
the numbers of borrowers will be 40Million we can say we could help 40Million families with that
amount of money so they might earn some money for there famillies or they would start small business
collectively ......that will really help them to maintain there serious wealth shortages
and the money will come into transactions/liquidity in the markets ........
I want more opinions on that please come back on this discussion lately to get the conclusion .........
thanks

At some point, yes i would agree that it could be helpful but it might not work necessarily. What we need first is to know why the population is poor. Most of the time is because the government of those poor countries are corrupted. Wether schools or hospitals are built, those are required progress and more monney to continue. A country where the leader only sees monney won't care much. Rich people would always be rich and they would bully the small business stores. This happens often. I also know that in England, they built 8 castles or something like that. I don't see the necessity to have 8. The monney used to build that thing can help so many people's lives.

The best way to remove the bad apples is for the population to voice their opinions but it's not easy. The police is not good enough. The bad people give them monney and they will be free. If the poor people start to make a commotion about this, it won't be unusual to see them murdered. So the best and quick way to get the country clean is to assasinate the bad president. I can't see a better way other than this. But then again, who will run to become a president? It will probably be his minions who will take his place. I am from a Cambodian living in Canada but from what i know, this is what my native country goes through. Once the country comes with a clean president, the country can work out better. If you have time watch this video on youtube: "Stolen Innocence - cambodia". I want to help my country alot. When my mom send monney over there, it feels that it's just lengthening their life for a couple of months and then again, their misery will come back. I think job creations and education would help. We can build schools but for the jobs, that's out of our hands.

I hope that the way it is, but some time when people get rich and richer the more stingy they become and yes not all people like that.
A billioner sometime only had not more then 1% of their wealth in cash, weather in hard cash or in bank account. And more over, they only going to do something that will has a benefit to them self financially or popularity.
I hope that kind of day will come, and this world will be utopia.

I think it is a bit too utopian and the funds would be misused etc. In theory it sounds very nice.
