“<strong>The</strong> cure for poverty has a name, in fact: it’s called<br />

the EMPOWERMENT of WOMEN. If you give them<br />

some control over the rate at which they reproduce,<br />

take them off the animal cycle of reproduction to<br />

which some religious doctrine condemns them, and<br />

then if you throw in a handful of seeds or access to<br />

credit, the floor of everything in that village—not<br />

just poverty, but health and education—will rise.”<br />

Hitchens<br />

-- Christopher<br />
