3) There's a remarkable link between rising education and real, causative problems that keep people poor for generations:

- Educated people choose to have fewer children.
- Educated people are more receptive to extending rights to women, and racial/social/religious minorities.
- Educated people are more resistant to radical fundamentalism.


I'm just saying that for that to be relevant to this conversation you're making a leap of faith that OLPC will increase the number of educated people in the world.
