It was already done indirectly via bitcoin in a form of donations to create wells and food supply in Africa. I heard that from the Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Joe himself donated some bitcoin.
The point is finishing with poverty, which is impossible. They are just giving them some food that will last a short time, then what happens? They are back to the same place. The ideal solution is to provide everyone with jobs, so that they can earn money themselves. But the problem is that not all of them want to work. They want to survive on the handouts. So this problem will exist forever.

Maduro was a huge disappointment. He has none of the capabilities that Hugo Chavez had. Hugo Chavez had rescued millions of Venezuelans from the poverty. But Maduro threw them back to that position once more.

I do not think he will be building anything in the end and even if he does, he sure as hell won't be getting mexico to pay for it ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Trump is a very intelligent and shrewd businessman. He has put Mexico in a very tough spot. If he levies a duty on the Mexican products, then there is no other option for the Mexicans but to pay for it. Else, the products can't be imported in to the United States and the manufacturing units will close down. Millions of people will lose their jobs.

Seems those in East Germany have the same sentiments as those in Central and Eastern Europe. Well, regardless, it seems opposition is increasing in other places as well. Many in the local government units in Italy are already complaining. I also saw residents in one town in France build a wall around an old hotel that was planned to be turned to an immigrant center. Weird that I mostly see those stuff in RT. You'd never see this reported on CNN or BBC. Heck, even al-Jazeera is more likely to report about these.
France and Italy are having long established right-wing movements, and therefore it is not surprising. But the case with nations such as Germany and Sweden are different. Even center-right parties such as the AfD and Sweden Democrats are being accused as "Neo-Nazis" by the mainstream media, and people are very reluctant to openly support them.

I would say that science is anti-religion. Whenever and wherever the knowledge of science spreads, the hold of the religion becomes weak. That is why the religious leaders are so much against science.

Of course, degree is very important on landing a good job. But you must be comfortable in choosing your degree. Education is important - nobody can take that away from you.
Going to a college is not just beneficial for getting a future job. It has many other advantages as well. You will get the opportunity to interact with students and teachers from a wide variety of backgrounds, and you will get more opportunity to try your luck with arts and sports. Even if you fail to graduate from the college, the experiences that you gain may become valuable later in the life.

Does violence as a solution ever really work? In the short term, perhaps it will lessen drug trafficking. But the cartels will adapt to the new environment. The risk of selling drugs will increase and so will the price. The cartel will need to become militarized and start buying off the cops. Perhaps the next Escobar will pop up and play chess with the government while the pawns continue to die.
Yes. What happened in Mexico can happen in the Philippines as well, especially if the cops are corrupt. And I assume that they are corrupt, after studying the abduction and murder of that South Korean businessman (Jee Ick-Joo).

Buddy what are you Smoking grass? Where did you get these numbers? If you believe like you it turns out that the Russian in 2000 received 100-200 dollars a month, and now thanks to the rat named Putin their salary was 150-300 thousand dollars per month. Lol! You need to either go to school and learn to count or not to confuse the income of Russian officials and people. It is not me, but you who is in need of education. It seems to me that although you are educated, your blind hatred of Russia has made you blind to the facts. The below chart proves what I had said: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fcarnegieendowment.org%2Fimages%2Farticle_images%2Ffig_015-2-web_eng.jpg&t=663&c=gQ8TibXgOIGkgQ)

Trump should stay focused on issues directly involving the United States. Domestic issues. We have a lot of problems over here. The man is 70 years old and an accomplished businessman on an international level. I'm sure he's awake to the way the world turns.
Yes! He should concentrate on the domestic issues first, rather than wasting the tax money by invading nations such as Iran, North Korea and even Russia. The Iraq and Libya invasions were complete disasters and I thought that at least after this, the Americans might have been taught a lesson. the whole situation with Libya was the worst move they could ever make, nothing even remotely good came out of it and I'm hoping that Trump won't be making such huge disastrous mistakes. It is not the Americans, but the Europeans who are suffering as a result of the mistakes in Libya. More than a million migrants have got to Europe via the Libyan route. If Gaddhafi was in power, none of this would have happened.

These women and their husbands will have a hard time if they decide to move back and live in these countries. Countries such as Poland are poor, when compared to the western European nations. And in these countries money matters a lot. If the Muslim husband moves in with his white wife, and if he is rich, then he will face no issues. Poland is now very common anti Muslim sentiments and if this problem not solve in time it can lead to uncontrollable riots. Then the angry mob will not care how much money he has. I think the Muslims specially provoke the people then to complain that they are oppressed. That's true. They are always the first ones to play the victim card. When they are in a minority, they will play the victim card. But once they becomes the majority, they will make it impossible for the natives to live in that place.

True facts, but i still think USA is the most agressive country.
No surprises there. The Americans have invaded or intervened in at least 70 third world nations (militarily) ever since the end of world war 2. No other country (including Russia) even comes remotely close.

In most of the countries, the judges think that they are even above the gods. It is not possible to criticize them. If you say anything against them, then you will be sent to the prisons. And here in India, judiciary is the most corrupt branch out there.

Crime rate fall 13% in philippines including Rape according to the Philippine National Police. In my country rapist punishment is life imprisonment but i would like death sentence as punishment so nobody will imitate their act though death sentence is not yet implemented in my country.
As long as the Catholic church remains powerful in the Philippines, they will never allow the implementation of death penalty in that country. It is time for the Filipinos to ask for the separation of church from the state.

Some countries or state have been accepting this kind of marriage. Here in the Philippines, we do not recognize it as legal or something like that. How about in your country?
Hey we're in the same country. Well, i don't really care. I don't see it as "do what makes you happy thing". I see it as one way of inhibiting the growth of the population which is good in my opinion. I would rather prefer condoms and pills over homosexuality, to control the growth of the population. Also, why are you not talking about the negatives associated with homosexual way of life? Gays are almost 100 times more likely to suffer from diseases such as HIV and Syphilis.

Ya? Was it also a kingpin who killed Jee Ick Joo?
The kidnapping and murder of Jee Ick-Joo was a shameful chapter in the history of the Philippine police. He was not in any way associated with the drugs trade, and still the policemen abducted him and then murdered him even after the ransom payment was made.

It is fake news. Most of the ISIS members are either closet homosexuals or bisexuals. But they hide their sexual orientation from the outside world, and justify their gay orgies saying that any male without a beard is actually a female. So if they are having sex with a 10-year old boy, they will claim that it is actually heterosexual intercourse.

Do you have any reliable proof for this?
1600 people are not 100% of Russians It is clear that this survey was conducted to discredit the Russians. Russophbia among the western mainstream media has reached such a proportion that they will stoop down to any level to tarnish Russia. Surveys such as this one must be thrown to the trashcan.

Also, we know that the one who discovered America, Columbus is an immigrant.
No one discovered America. Indians were living in the Americas for the last 10,000 years or more. You can say that Columbus was the first Southern European to visit the continents (the first European was Erik the Red, who discovered Greenland). Leif Eriksson was the first European to land in mainland North America. And China's Admiral Zheng landed in the Americas 70 years before Columbus. What is for you the concept of "discovery"? Columbus discovered America for the society which at that time communicated among themselves and did not know about the existence of such a continent. It doesn't have to be a desert continent. And now scientists make discoveries in the ocean, but that does not mean that it's uninhabited. Perhaps you need to educate yourself about the meaning of discovery. You can't say that the Americas were discovered by Columbus, when Erik the Red had done the same 500 years back. Zheng He landed in the Americas somewhere around AD 1430. The journey of Columbus holds significance only for Southern Europeans.

I agree with your point of view, family planning can be a good control of the population, China is a large population before the implementation of family planning, effective control of the population.
Even now China is the most populous country in the world. But the population growth has slowed down, and the living standards have risen. Now compare China with India, where the population is increasing at an alarming rate. The living standards remain pathetic. There is a direct dependence of fertility level of life. The higher the standard of living the higher the education the more people want good conditions for their life and the lives of their children. This leads to the fact that they consciously control fertility. May be that is the case. Take Hong Kong for example. It is having one of the lowest birth rates in the world, with the fertility rate measured at around 0.90 (2.1 needed for population replacement). There is no one-child policy in Hong Kong, but the people are not having children.
