This is excellent--well-written and on point. Poverty eradication = Unblocked opportunities. Thank you, Magatte!

Read your book. Glad to see you continuing this good work. Too many “good liberals” think government aid is the answer to the problem of third world poverty, and you demonstrate clearly that the answer has to be economic opportunity for business people who will create jobs to lift people out of poverty.

Glad you are here to set the record straight. Perhaps you can write a rebuttal in the op-Ed section of the Times

Thank you. And that's a great idea. I am not holding my breath it will be accepted, but worth trying.

I'm glad to read about Prospera, and not surprised that NYT has skewed the information. As a USA citizen and retire small businessman, it scares me that the central government has become a monolithic bureaucracy that can easily destroy a person or a business.

Bureaucracies are not created by the will of the people; they are created by the will of the bureaucrats.

Thank you for your comment. It is important to fight for economic freedom and free enterprise, for the prosperity and innovation, in short progress they bring to Humanity.
