In the Chapter 3 reading "The Singer Solution to World Poverty," what does author Peter Singer suggest?

A) Those who are fortunate to have "extra" money should save it for the future security of their own families.
B) Individuals have a moral obligation to assist others who are less fortunate.
C) It is counterproductive to ask individuals to give the bulk of their wealth to strangers.
D) You do not have to take responsibility for struggles that take place on the other side of the world.

In the reading, Peter Singer argues that individuals have a moral obligation to assist others who are less fortunate, particularly those who are suffering from extreme poverty. He suggests that those who have a comfortable standard of living should give a significant portion of their income to help address global poverty. This argument is based on the idea that individuals in affluent countries have a responsibility to use their excess resources to help those in need, regardless of geographical distance or familiarity with the individuals affected.
