Direct cash transfers beat every other form of philanthropy
This hill is unclaimed. Nobody is willing to die on it. Yet. First blood pending.
- Pay, and you hold it.
- Anyone can dethrone you for more.
- Every claim stays on the record.
No claims on the record.
The other side
A bed net costs a few dollars and protects a sleeping child from malaria. No household can buy the eradication of a disease. Cash buys what is already for sale nearby. It cannot fund a vaccine trial or chlorinate a town's water supply. Coverage is the point. Money handed out one family at a time never assembles it.
