LOVE AND LOVERS

Chapter 14
All societal iniquities afflict humankind.
Absolute (extremely poor) and relative (pervasively poor) poverties constitute the two largest groups of Citizens of Earth who, each day of their lives, fight to live another. 85% live on less than $30 a day. Two-thirds live on less than $10 a day. And 10% live on less than $1.90 a day. The Ultra Poor live on less than 54 cents a day. More than 40% of the poor live in war-torn nations. Women and children frequently bear unequal burdens of poverty. 723,000,000 Citizens of Earth live in poverty.
All Citizens of Earth who suffer poverty every nanosecond of their lives live in violence, not under the shelter of the law: ****** violence (e.g. **** and worldwide ****** trafficking of women, and of children); forced labor; illegal detention; land theft; assault; police brutality; oppression, as well as many, many others fraught with the same horror. And, of course, death.
Hunger and malnutrition are constant visitors to the Citizens of Earth who are poor. Every night 690,000,000 Citizens of Earth try to fall asleep on an empty stomach. By 2030, 840,000,000 will be trying to do the same. Every day, 10,000 children around the world die of starvation.
Water covers 71% of Earth’s surface. Only 3% of Earth’s water is fresh. A quart of motor oil will pollute 750,000 gallons of water. Lack of access of clean water is a leading cause of child immortality.
Refugees seek asylum from persecution, conflict, and violence, but all too often are met with the antitheses of the aforementioned.
About 40,000,000 Citizens of Earth who have contracted the *** virus continue to struggle to survive, but there is still no cure for this vicious disease yet.
