If any tax haven is given immunity from an ethical obligation, that location again should be made available to the public and a biological experiment can be performed in the name of justice.

As ONE and Bob Geldof have said so strongly, Africa must be included as part of the global economic recovery. This is not only because we must support the world's most vulnerable people during this financial downturn (a crisis they had little or nothing to do with), but also because Africa represents so much economic and trade opportunity for future growth. Putting forth smart, robust plans to help the poorest people fight back against poverty, disease and despair will help our global recovery, create goodwill, improve security and--most simply--make this world better and more just.
