Fight inequality or poverty?

 Moises Naim argues that fighting poverty needs to me a more important priority than reducing inequality - despite political pressures to the contrary.

What to do, then? Let us stop fighting a battle we cannot win and concentrate all efforts on a fight that can succeed. The best tools to achieve a long-term, sustained decline in inequality are the same as those that are now widely accepted as the best available levers to lift people out of poverty. Provide access to better education and health, clean water, justice, steady jobs, housing and credit.
