Why are some countries still so rich and others so poor

[fernandoaleixo]

With all the technology, healthcare and education why is the world still so divided? With some places being rich while others being torn in wars and crimes, forcing people to hide or become refugees. What are your thoughts on the issue?

If u have good knowledge of Past. When education just started Dominating Money and people started learning Education value.

Kings of that time started Arresting all Knowledgable personality to hold them in there Kingdom, so that they can pride over them. And you can see such incidents where evert King was having Think Tanks to Dominate other kings.

Same thing is going on , Some nation who conquere this world by forces in which " Great Britain " is no 1. Looted almost all nations and make themself rich , and never allow other nations to get educated, bcoz they realize whoever get educated will talk about freedom.

Now Governments are doing same , they use Media to divert minds and make people busy in Lustful life so that they never talk about Freedom.

The only freedom which really required is of " Thinking " and that is what no government want. Because once someone started thinking , he can make government down due to InEquality.

Most of the revolutions came in history due to InEquality.

Most of the countries which have been suffering from hunger, narrow circumstances  have been exploited by colonialist states for many years. For that reason, they are poor and their resources are not enough for them.

I think because of their government or leader is not corrupt. So that their country is rich.

In any country,there is the leadership and the followers. The founding fathers of a country goes a long way to determine what becomes of the country. Some countries are poor because of bad leadership,mismanagement of resources, greed and misplaced priorities. This is common in African countries where corruption is rarely punished.on the other hand rich countries have popele oriented policies in place and proper implementation of the polices

Corrupting leaders is a big problem for those countries that aren't moving and remains at the lowest rank. I'll give an example like Japan. I've researched that kids there in primary school are being taught on how to be polite and to have a good manner. And the academics will just come for higher level.

In summary, the citizens has also an important part for the growth of the country and the number one thing that they should have is discipline.

[Sparklingangel]

It is because of bad leadership. In some countries, the leaders loot their money and invest it outside the country leaving the masses to suffer.
It is also because some countries are blessed with rich a n good mineral resources which they utilize and make money with them.

From my own point of view,i think the problem is from our leaders.
My reason is that, leaders are the first citizen of a country. They are the ones that decide what happens in a country, so when a bad or corrupt leader is ruling a country ,the country tends to suffer and their economy will crumble. For a country to strive good ,an effective leaders should to elected..

perhaps it could be that greedy state sovereignty sometimes wants power.

healthy government is free from corruption of the positive impact of prosperous society

[Rommel24]

It should think that, while some nation are still  rich and while still poor ? Maybe because it also started to her
people mindset,( lack of education through in business) rich mindset (educated through in business)look  try  explore  to others rich nation usually at very young age are mindset to handle the business and not to become employees,, you will see the big deference?

But it's funny as some countries have all the skills and technology but are not willingly to share, althought that's understandable, such greediness is what keep the status quo in such a wrong world.

Each country has a leader ship and it depends on how they handle their resources, the government officials should not be in corruption so that the government can implementing more infranstructure and high quality education.

[Tramle091296]

Well you cant blame the people but being a poor have a many reasons to it. One of this is by handling of the government some of its is always political corruption always thinking about their own pocket better than the life of people thats why every people even their want to suceed if the goverment use their taxes in an evil way their effort is wasted same in country it will goes down and get a Huge loss of profit.

Not all the countries are rich in natural resources. Take the case of Norway. The Norwegians happens to be one of the richest people on the earth, thanks to their abundant natural gas and petroleum resources. But the presence of natural resources alone doesn't guarantee that a particular country may remain rich. A perfect example is that of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

perhaps it's culture, Japan, South Korea and Germany may have war many times but give them some/a decade/s they can be rich again they are goal oriented compare to poor countries. saw this in my country the Philippines we have a culture of poverty.

we embrace corruption as an individual, we don't have ethical moorings, we practice "kumpare system"(indulgence) in wrong ways.
 
we don't entrepreneurial spirit we prepare to have a luxurious/good house instead of stable business, one example is my family we voted 4-1 out to build a new house even he had one instead to increase our business. I always heard to my father "pwede na yan"(that will do) instead of giving good service to our customers. we prepare to have a job that to have a business.

we prepare to work abroad even opportunity is in front of you. last year my brother asking my parent's money so he can work abroad we disagree because we know we can make more money here(he's very skillful). just last month he had an income of 2,500,000 pesos(47,000 USD) he is now the richest man in the family in terms of income.

Filipino teach the family to give money to their family who's in need but not teaching them how to make money. I know a lot of Filipino overseas workers give money to their brothers and sister because they don't have work even to the children of their brother and sister for tuition fees but never ask their brothers and sister to do small business or accept any work or give money to them for their own business
(teach them how to fish not giving them a fish).

we practice yabang system (show off) cellphone loan, car loan, house loan even not needed.

A lot of countries are not as wealthy as others because of wars. That is because after wars the economy of the country is deteriorating. And it needs time to recover. Some countries have more wars, others less. That is why there is such a difference.

Well, it is partially true. In many countries that is the cause of todays bad situation with economy. But You have example of few countries that were devastated just 70 years ago, Germany and Japan, but Germany in first place. Germany's infrastructure was totally destroyed, man population was also devastated, and to all that they had 10 or more milions ethnic German refugees from other countries, but mostly from east Prussia that was seized by Poland and USSR. And look where are they now. In every country government need to deal with corruption, organized crimes and all sort of traffiking ( weapons, drugs etc ), and all that just that people can be safe and free to do their daily jobs. Second thing that is needed is will of ordinary people to learn, and will to work hard. That't it. Germans did that. They worked hard and people get educated. But I am repeating myself, condition for this is respect of law ( No mafia, no drug smugglers, no corruption among politicians, and all of this is job of government, other part is job of people ).

I think that rich countries has a great teaching in terms of education so that if they got that knowledge from their school they can apply it to their works someday, from that they can get a higher position in their company and then they earn big salary from that . So , they can become rich.

[Sidiq SP]

the difference in every country why it can be rich and the other is not because of its natural resources and human resources, many rich countries at the cost of natural resources in its abundant territory make its own assets and income for the country, besides it is human, such as japan, america and others belonging to rich countries due to having superior human resources, have thoughts that can create something that produces and it becomes its own assets, and I think the poor country and many of the warfare in because of natural resources and people less and unbalanced, there was a dispute

[JimmyPangan]
