Poverty cure: Micro-Loans and Capitalism! I heard this guy on NPR this morning and he was awesome. His philosophy is to use capitalism to unlock people's profit incentive. In just one example he said his program had gotten 10,000 beggars full time employment:
Nobel Peace prize winner and micro-lender Muhammad Yunus says the problem of poverty is one that can be solved. Yunus built a $6 billion business in large part by making small business loans, beginning with a $27 loan to Bangladeshi villagers. He's author of the new book, "Creating a World Without Poverty."
