We would have to be more clear on what influences you were looking for. Poverty is a relational term and if we were going to evenly distribute wealth the result would be Americans living on a small fraction of what we currently have. On the other hand, if you suggested a breakthrough in science that would give every country equal natural resources and equal education you would be creating wealth. If you were suggesting moving to a barter economy across the world to eliminate the monetary system that creates a whole other set of issues. Any ideas?
