The poor, you will always have with you, said Jesus

How do we help the poor? I don't mean the American way. We have been trying to bring about a better world by fighting dictatorships to defend freedom and democracy. All we have been doing is bombing the poor and killing them in the millions to bring about regime change.

Love, not Christian love but the Jesus kind, can end poverty.

Christian love is love of the self, for the self, by the self. Selfish.

Jesus asked if we could give up everything - everything, including the self - to follow him.

No self. No selfishness. Can we do it?

@oldguy73 We do live in a make-belief world of the self.

Poverty is a state of neediness. In America, neediness is a psychological state: an anxious need of self-worth.
