It is difficult to expect high morality among poor people. It is not that they don't have it . poverty some times pushes them beyond their limits. It is easy to use such frusterated people against any one specially against their own gov.

Development does help in such situations. If hunger is taken care of and shelter is provided then people can think about other responsibilities as citizen .

Life is a coin which has two sides.. If you find happiness, sadness comes along with it.. Similarly, if there is a development, then a threat is also associated with it.. There are ways to find out the threat.. But we cannot help when those talented people themselves are reasons for the threat!!

Its human who develop things.. Unless and until these development are used for the benefits there are no worries.. But human needs to change himself.. Unless that happens, he himself is a threat to other humans and nature!!

Yes, a developed nation where people have high living standards are more likely to be peaceful. There is no question!

Very well said. 😊

Ironically though, often people from poorer societies show more interest in politics then people from richer societies who are more interested in reality television then political shows.

So perhaps people from "developed" economies can learn from those in the "developing" world.

Freedom and power are great for development of nations and people. It is when they get whacked out of balance and not restrained, we see events as you decribed above Myth.

What shootout in US?

When did they declare Kenya/India/Pakistan to be developed nations 😆

1. Not necessarily - How do we define safety ? If strictly means security related then percentage of security standards in developed country can be more the developing countries, but can be zeroed either ways.

2. Development should be the per capita income in the country should be enough to not only attain basic needs but have a joyfull day to day life, law enforcement should be strict and ample, standard of living should be stable, balance betwenn competitiveness plus growth in professional areas...oh mann there are many...lolssssss BTW NO developed country or ways we think development of nation should be, can ensure there is no loss of human lives for abc reasons...

So do you mean to say that ....." Economic Development " ensures saftey to a greater extent......what about some countries where there is lot of "Economic Development" where there is no safety for women?😊
