Creed en las personas.

Sorprendido me he quedado, desde hace unas tres semanas sigo las conferencias de Reith 2007, hay verdaderas perlas e ideas para construir un mundo mejor, hoy escucho la cuarta entrega, y no he parado la audición para solo escribir esto que me ha parecido muy interesante:
In brief, the social welfare model of Northern Europe helps the poor both at home and abroad. The U.S. model, alas, leaves the poor to suffer their fate, both at home and abroad. Americans, as a result, are fearful of their economic future, as they are left to fend for themselves. They have little time for others. The world is seen as filled with threats, and of "us versus them," rather than with opportunities in an interconnected global society. The Nordic countries, by contrast, have the domestic security of social protection which they then seek to extend to the world.
(...)
We can end poverty, at home and abroad, with the technologies and tools that we have, if we trust each other sufficiently, at home and abroad.

Bonita idea:
Podemos terminar con la pobreza si confiamos los unos con los otros no solo aquí, en casa, en nuestro país, sino también fuera de ella, en el mundo entero
