    So to look at the "unreasonable effectiveness of cash transfers" to raise a country's average, we are supposed to look at an experiment in Kenya, which is 168th in the world in GDP per capita!?

    Instead of, you know, looking at how, say, western countries did actually raise the standard of living?

      Western countries did not raise the standard of living using cash transfers, so of course looking at what they did won't tell you whether cash transfers are effective or not.
