MagTalk | The Selfish Reason to End Poverty: An Economic Case for a Better World

24 Oct 2025

Description

We're often told to fight poverty because it's the "right" thing to do. It is. But what if it's also the "smartest" thing to do for our own economic future? Poverty isn't just a problem for the poor; it's a massive drag on the entire economy. It wastes human potential, strains public services, and stifles innovation. Our latest article makes the pragmatic, economic case for ending poverty. It’s not about taking from a fixed pie; it’s about growing the whole pie so there’s more for everyone. It’s time to move from sympathy to solidarity. Read the full argument here: https://englishpluspodcast.com/the-selfish-reason-to-end-poverty-an-economic-case-for-a-better-world/ #Economics #Poverty #Investment #SocialGood To unlock full access to all our episodes, consider becoming a premium subscriber on Apple Podcasts or Patreon.
