My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago.

And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for【C12】______world poverty that we’ve ever had.
Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to【C13】______poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has【C14】______potential.

Countries that still think foreign investment is a/an【C17】______of their sovereignty might well study the history of【C18】______(the basic structural foundations of a society)in the United States. When the United States built its industrial infrastructure, it didn’t have the capital to do so. And that is【C19】______America’s Second Wave infrastructure【C20】______roads, harbors, highways, ports and so on-were built with foreign investment.
