Corruption is the biggest challenge and enemy to poverty eradication worldwide. Sadly the global effort to fight corruption is not as effective as it should be and that means poverty will continue to be with us for many years.
Can poverty be eradicated? We have always had poverty and just like the sex trade, it is not something we can switch off. There will always be people in need. Imagine the derivatives market that was worth around $500 Trillion (US dollars), yet people tell us there are others that do not have access to clean drinking water. How do we reconcile the two extremes is perhaps a better question.
