One response to “Duflo says credit ratings punish poor”

  1. William E. Carpenter

    Enjoy these global articles that help to assimilate in a practical way, what is needed to build a world that we all can enjoy living in. My major areas of interest are revolutionizing our educational systems, the food industry, and how we communicate and build relationships. In changing the educational system means integrating money and finance training starting in pre-school… Thank you, William
