Think extreme poverty rates rise under capitalism? Think again—the truth might surprise you. You might have heard the phrase, “the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.” Yes, it’s true that the rich (tend to) get richer, but the poor get richer too—especially if we look at a time span of decades or longer, and if we focus our attention on people living in countries where governments adhere to a basic respect for the rule of law and property rights.

Ebola 2.0? Hundreds in India Contract Rare Disease That Kills Most it Infects
At least 14 people in India have died after an outbreak of a rare disease only discovered two decades ago. The World Health Organization lists the virus, Nipah, alongside ebola and zika as one of eight priority diseases that could cause a pandemic. The disease is caused by a viral infection and has a mortality rate of 70 percent. There is no vaccine for it. It carries flu-like symptoms that lead to encephalitis, or inflammation of the brain. Nipah has killed 260 people since 1998 in Bangladesh, India and Malaysia. It has also been documented in Singapore.

Why the FBI says rebooting your router can weaken a global malware attack
The Federal Bureau of Investigation is asking everyone with a home router to do one small thing: Turn your router off and then back on again. The agency issued a warning on Friday asking home Internet users and small business owners to reboot their routers to ward off a pernicious piece of malware called VPN Filter. The malware infects routers during the first stage of an attack that eventually gives hackers great control over the devices connected to the Internet. The malware has been linked to a group believed to be connected to the Russian military.
