Poverty in USA in 2000. Poverty in USA in 2012. Difference, zero. It's been practically the same since 1965 and it's only USA, but maybe should I quote the website itself which wants to “End poverty in all of its forms everywhere,” or maybe it just wants to “End extreme poverty,” actually we don't know, since it's contradictory. It aims to end poverty according to international poverty line, but only reduce it according to national poverty line, which is already one major flaw. It also wants to end economic and social disasters, but that would mean world peace, and most major nations have too much to lose there to do it by 2030, but they also try to stop natural disasters. That's what the website says in their end poverty targets. And it's not possible. Plus, by 2030, leaders everywhere will have changed, laws will be different, everything will be different so the chances that the project lives further than 2016 are already too slim.

And that's only the first objective - ending poverty, that I'm talking about. Because I could go on for a very long time when it comes to other objectives like objective five - gender equality, when it actually is just focused on women. I myself thought gender discrimination wasn't possible for men, but then I became an 8 year-old. So what do we do? I want this project to be sustainable and actually work, who doesn't? But let's face it - it won't. What do you think, I'm not some guy from 4chan/b/ who just vomits at everything that can actually bring something to this world, but I understand it's getting much more common nowadays.
