Can't say I support it per se because I haven't read over the exact plan of this initive, but I think that if it's executed ideally, it could lead to a lot of good...

Well, that's only if you believe in the Christian teachings and the Book of Revelations... I, for one, am not afriad of locusts the size of horses, with the face of men, the hair of women, and the teeth of lions

That scares the hell out of me, but I divorced the bitch, so I don't care what kind of teeth she has now. Sounds like a 'rainy day fund' sort of to me, which ain't a bad idea

Exactly, and it would be able to take some pressure off developing countries governments, freeing up their resources to tackle more pressing issues... pending they aren't exploited as pointed out by Blackmagik.

While we wouldn't make as much in owed interest, we might be able to save in the form of public and private donations which would no longer be needed in such quantities...
