The reasons we have terrorism in the world are because people are exploited, not educated, and born into the shackles of a worldwide labor system that favors the Northern economies of Western nations.

Very bad example, Bin Laden is very rich, very well educated. Islamic extremists are very well funded by Saudi Oil profits. Your argument doesn't hold water. To say that poor people are criminals/terrorists because they are poor is completely wrong.

In fact terrorists have millions of dollars at there disposal in gold, uncut diamonds, funneled oil profits, etc.
