RE: Why Do We Need More Philanthropists in the Modern World???

in #mindset6 years ago

Your article makes good reading and raises Interesting points. Is it possible to have an 'equal society' where not all, but relatively large percentage of the people can be described as wealthy and enjoy good healthy living? Capitalism is sometimes blamed for imbalances in the distribution of world wealth, but if you focus on each individual, talents and capabilities vary hence, it is my belief that if all the scarce world wealth was distributed equally, for argument sake, a dollar per person in the morning, in the evening some will have ten dollars while others nothing. However, this assumption may not be used to deter willing individuals from engaging from Philanthropic activities. Philanthropists reap intrinsic benefits from acts of giving other than pursuance of making more money.
