My Opinion on Poverty
Poverty is one of the most pressing problems of the world today. So many people face this issue daily and are without access to a lot of basic essentials such as; housing, adequate food if any at all. Medical treatment and so further. Poverty harms children’s health, emotional well-being, education and mental state. The fact that there are sources out there for people I feel like it’s offered to few and selected people which is truly unfair. Public assistance is offered to certain people under certain restrictions which still violates certain groups to not qualify for anything that they have to offer. In many cases people choose to live this way for various reasons such as being able to manage money or mentally unstable and just not capable of living with what they have. I feel that the wages from work should be raised so that everyone can live comfortably. I think people should be taught how to start a safety net with that income so when things get tight you have something to fall back on instead of being broke when unforeseen things happen.
