Some positivity for your day!

Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We've come far, and have further to go!
The extreme poverty one is laughable especially when criteria to define extreme poverty is ridiculous. Extreme poverty in places where you earn less than $1.90 but can still have subsistence farming and community doesn't make sense - also if living in San Francisco and earning $2/day isn't extreme poverty... I don't know what is.
Poverty shouldn't be tied to capital but to standards of living - that would be a completely different story.
