Needless Suffering

Needless Suffering But Why? Luis Mashapure The pinnacle of worldly success, as seen in increased knowledge and super industrialization -- Heeh? Today, pretty much all needs of man could be met if we had the resolve. Science and engineering have scaled deeper depths and higher heights while econometricians have developed sophisticated economic models ever. However, because of deeply rooted immoral attitudes and inspite of great knowledge attained, man has preferred to stash over a $1trillion in safe heavens, far away from the reach of the ordinary people. Only 4% of such money - the equivalent of $40bl - we are told - could solve humanity’s basic needs or at least for the world’s 3.6bl poor people. Literally, even all budding social intrapreneurs would get the capital injection they need; people would stretch themselves to innovate in un-imaginable ways. Everything would move and fly – one could say. Alas! Man has failed to share the abundant resources and all gained knowledge is being put to waste. ‘Talking time is over: It’s time to act’.
