The United States is still the richest nation on Earth. There is more than enough money to wipe out poverty. But our capitalist system is by design set up to have winners and losers -- and the more money that goes to the rich, the less there is for everyone else. Poverty only exists in America because our leaders (and too many of our citizens) lack the will to eliminate it. We still endorse greed as a greater value than sharing. Great is our sin!
