Product Description
The world of the haves and the have nots is antiquated. The
coming world is of the haves and the have mores…this is a nuts
and bolts approach to today’s problems with concrete solutions
to bring about an era of peace. Included in this work is
Marlon Brando’s solution to feed the world. The philosophy
behind the book comes from following the works of Sir Edward
Artis who has traveled the world and brought relief to some of
the most dangerous places in the world. Millions of dollars
get raised in the United States to solve problems and a lot of
that money never hits the mark. We can continue doing the same
things and the problems will not get solved. But doing the
same thing will not lead to solutions. Solutions will come
when ordinary citizens rise and do the work themselves. This
book outlines solutions!
