Question

What is the thesis of "What should a billionaire give-and what should you?"

Answer 1

• Peter Singer's persuasive essay strips us bare of our selfish wants as he equates our tendency to accumulate all the stuff we don’t need with ignoring the plight of drowning children and, as such, being responsible for the death of those children.We have a moral obligation to those who do not have a social capital and help them.From this perspective rose philanthropy, with the aim of improving human life quality. Be charitable in life without any ulterior motive and purely to help others without any expectations.
• The rich should hold some of the burden of relieving global poverty too but  if everyone in each country would give their own fair share to relieve global poverty, the burden would lessen. The reality of this is that certain people will have to give more to make up for those that refuse to do their own fair share. Therefore, we must decide for ourselves how much our “fair share” is. We must keep in mind the reason why we give in the first place. If everyone’s life is of equal value, then it is our job to ensure that “virtually no one” has “to live in such degrading conditions.” Everyone who is earning and has a income should contribute something towards the poor.
