For thousands of years people reasonably believed that poverty was an integral component of society. This view is no longer valid.

The poor, worldwide, can much more closely reach their potential intelligence. Accordingly, the middle-class grows, demand for goods and services increases, benefiting, of course, those providing goods and services.
