I think that you are confusing the disease with the symptom again. The disease is the current political (democracy) and economic (capitalism) system; which cannot be treated by operating within the realm of the disease. One of the symptoms of this kind of system is poverty in many places around the world. Micro-financing is working with the current system of capitalism and thus would prove ineffective in curing the disease which, again, is capitalism. This kind of poverty needs democracy and capitalism in order to exist; working within capitalism allows the disease to continue. As an analogy, if a person becomes ill due to exposure to mold, expose to mold will continue his illness.
The disease cannot easily be removed by any short process. It would require most of the world's denizen to come to terms with many concepts which they have been rejecting for their entire lives. One of which is that they deserve to have luxury at the expense of others, and that others who are not great simply are not trying hard enough.
