<i>I said: any strong evidence that no human action could improve the poor&#x27;s fortunes.</i><p>That&#x27;s not an answer, it&#x27;s just a tautology. &quot;Anything that 
meets the criteria of the question you asked&quot; is not an answer. I&#x27;m asking for specific measurements. E.g., &quot;data showing that holding economics constant, certain groups wildly underperform&quot;.<p>Of course, if your views are faith based then no such measurement exists. Given how carefully you avoid stating such a measurement, this is my belief.<p><i>I, too, would oppose a violent solution, and not only for egotistical reasons, but your example is a non-sequitur.</i><p>A hypothetical designed to probe the limits of your morality is hardly a non-sequitur. Similarly, the trolley problem probably never literally happened in real life. That doesn&#x27;t mean it&#x27;s a non-sequitur to ask.<p>Anyway, good to know that there is little in this discussion beyond assertions of faith and dodging the core questions. Have fun.
