 | Barack Obama: Global Poverty Act = World tax = Socialism Please keep all comments and debates civil, no vulgarities, ECT... This is one step closer to liberal's "big brother". The US is loosing is sovereignty. The US is one step closer to having to pay taxes to foreign (and even hostile) nations. The Liberals often try to smear their opponents by saying their opponents are promoting "Big Brother", however when you look at the facts the Liberals and unfortunately some Republicans are the ones that are promoting "Big Brother". Whether it be to taxes of some global welfare program, the Kyoto treaty or under the guise of some other form of environmentalism, ect... The liberal fascists are selling what is essentially a blend of fascism, socialism, and communism. Unfortunately the right is shifting more in the same direction to compromise with liberals. |

 | The End of Poverty - The "Homework" of Our Generation My name is Shawn and on September 14 2006, I found my answer on how to make the world a better place. It's because of that answer that I am now in Bangladesh. On September 14th, 2006, the University of Notre Dame (of which I was a student studying for my Masters in Sociology) canceled all of its classes so that students could learn about an important issue: the problem of global health and third world poverty. One of the people who came to speak to us was Dr. Jeffrey Sachs (author of the book "The End of Poverty"). Dr. Jeffrey Sachs believes that extreme poverty can be eliminated in our lifetime. The power of this message inspired me to put school on hold so that I could do my part and hopefully inspire others along the way. I have come to Bangladesh to try and help the poorest of the poor. I am sharing this experience with the world through the power of YouTube. I know that my little "uncultured" project is a drop in the bucket. But hopefully, the more people that be inspired to believe we can end poverty in our lifetime - the closer we can get to that goal. This is just a montage of what I did in my first five months. Please check the other videos for more of what I have been able to do. Aid That I Gave In This Video Include: - 1 Long-Lasting Insecticide Treated Mosquito Net Donated by Vestergaard-Frandsen - 2 Cases of Bottled Water to Residents of a Flood Affected Region - A nutritional meal (including beef as a source of protein) for a large group of poor school children - 1 windup flashlight given to a young student in the rural village who cannot afford electricity - 50 Locally Made and Locally Purchased Mosquito Nets I plan on making more videos explaining each aid operation in more detail in the future. Don't worry - I'm not here to ask for your money. Although, I am asking you to consider rating the video and subscribing :-) My Project's Blog: http://uncultured.com My Project's Photos: http://flickr.com/photos/uncultured/ More YouTube Videos: http://youtube.com/UnculturedProject The entire Notre Dame 2006 forum is available as a free download from: http://forum2006.nd.edu These short excerpts have been used with written permission from the University of Notre Dame's Office of Public Affairs and Communication.

 | Hans Rosling: Watch the end of poverty http://www.ted.com In a follow-up to his now-legendary TED2006 presentation, Hans Rosling demonstrates how developing countries are pulling themselves out of poverty. He shows us the next generation of his Trendalyzer software -- which analyzes and displays data in amazingly accessible ways, allowing people to see patterns previously hidden behind mountains of stats. (Ten days later, he announced a deal with Google to acquire the software.) He also demos Dollar Street, a program that lets you peer in the windows of typical families worldwide living at different income levels. Be sure to watch straight through to the (literally) jaw-dropping finale. |
