As 2015 begins, we must consider policies and interventions to curb such extreme inequality. We must do this not only out of a sense of justice, but also because, in a world afflicted with such extreme disparities, its poorest residents lose their voice, even when they have the right to vote.
这是全人类的失败。随着2015年的临近，我们必须考虑采取政策和干预遏制这一极端不平等。我们必须这样做，这不仅是出于正义精神，也是因为，在一个受极端不公折磨的世界中，最贫困居民根本无从发出声音，即使他们拥有投票权。说到底，极端贫困是对民主的攻击。
