The Impact of Cash on Development Interventions

One thing i've noticed with coved is that people in general don't seem to be that interested in accelerating the the good that we're doing. And so there's probably a similar thing happening for people looking at anti poverty interventions, where there like, well, if people were going to catch up any way eventually, then we wouldn't do anything. It's exactly right. If you flipped the question and say there ware two worlds, the world where people would have caught up anyways, it's just going to take a very long time, or a world where people wouldn't catch up and would be stuck in poverty forever,. certainly we would all prefer the world wherepeople caught up.
