The Singer Solution To World Poverty: Response
Number of pages:
3
ABSTRACT:
3 pages in length. The prevalence of global poverty has compelled some critics of capitalism to argue how the United States - a single nation whose resources are readily able to make a beneficial impact upon the problem's resolution - is morally and ethically responsible for providing as much relief toward indigence it does to war efforts. Ethicist Peter Singer, one of the most vocal of all who espouse this proposal, believes Americans are both wasteful and greedy, a duality that stifles any attempt toward the United States providing a viable solution for ending world poverty. However, while Singer's proposal may serve to chip away at the problem, it will by no means solve it; at the same time, it will thrust middle class America into an even worse economic tailspin than this particular sector is already experiencing. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
