Wealth causes poverty. The so called Third World wasn't poor until capitalism invaded and took its toll, sucking the life out of every country it bestowed with its benevolence.
You're not convinced? History will back me up but be careful of which historian you trust.
The Roman Empire, The British Empire The Empire of the US they're all responsible. Greed and capitalsim are one in the same, they oppose democracy it's their enemy.

That's one of the most mind-numbingly stupid things I have ever read. Capitalism is the cause of all of the world's peril, and yet it did not exist during the Roman empire, the British empire, the middle ages (unless you're suggesting the Dark Ages were a paradise for the little people), and it doesn't even exist today. Capitalism is not the cause of problems, people abusing government power to get favorable subsidies and bend the market in their favor is the cause of problems.
Jesus.
