Hardship as a global problem

[el kaka22]

The resources in the world is finite, and the number of people is technically infinitely growing. Of course at some point humanity will realize that the world is too small to have nearly 10 billion population, and in many cases the nations who realize this early on, started to grow smaller, with either government decision, or basically just they realized it themselves, so the population is growing smaller eventually in some places.

However, this also causes hardship, not the population drop part, the part where we are so high that we should drop the population. Because high amount of population means that the finite resources are not enough for all the people that live in the world, sometimes simple stuff, sometimes expensive ones.

It has to do more with the mindset of poverty rather than hardship. The term hardship in this post sounds more like an individual problem rather than a global one because there are still persons whose greatest wish right now, is to
just see another day.
I know it ain't good economically for many countries mostly where they depend on oil or export and import products and food items to survive.

If individual adults who are able to earn or still trying to earn can stop waiting on the government to always assist in every situation, the disappointment alone that comes with making one become unproductive and undisciplined will be far away and the instinct to live in abundance and be peaceful while seeking a better way forward creatively, despite the scarcity and hardship of the economy, will forthcome with ease.

The level of poverty is the world is increasing without any plan for the government to make life easier for the masses. People are suffering and there is nothing the government has to say about this than to keep enriching there own pocket. There are many people that are sleeping on the street without any how for them to live.

That is why we keep seeing workers taking extra jobs to ensure they have savings and money to take care of there bills when they are sick and don't have the funds to pay there bills and take care of themselves. We need to be wise and keep working because if we decide to depend on the government for survival, we might not be able to get the kind of aid we need and we'll keep doing is to keep paying tax even with a little salary.

This conversation about AI/Technology replacing people in their jobs isn’t entirely true to me. What I believe is that people have to adapt. They have to learn to adapt. Think of when cameras used to print photos immediately it’s taken as it doesn’t give the ability to be previewed. Think of how that has changed today. Someone who doesn’t throw their old camera away and adapt to the new technology would fall out of business. Even ChatGPT and other AI tools, people who know to adapt have learnt and now apply it in their daily lives and jobs so they are even better. Just my thoughts.

However, the problem is that not everyone is able and willing to adapt to all existing changes. Where they just stay in their comfort zone which will soon be shifted. and if we don't have creativity and skills that are skilled and capable enough, then this is very likely to happen. And in the end they will lose their jobs and income that can support their lives. So it is quite important for us to be able to be aware of and sensitive to all changes that occur, so that we are always able to take steps to anticipate these problems.

To address global hardships, we need to focus on economic development, social safety nets, education, healthcare access, tackling inequality, and promoting global cooperation. By investing in these areas, we can help alleviate poverty, provide support to vulnerable populations, empower individuals with skills and education, ensure access to healthcare, reduce inequality, and work together on a global scale to address common challenges.

I agree with that, to be able to overcome this problem, infrastructure and superstructure development needs to be increased again, and evenly distributed in every region. Of course, this cannot be separated from the role of a country's government itself. Good cooperation between countries is quite crucial in overcoming existing global problems. Although, in reality this cooperation between countries is divided into several parts or blocks.This has given rise to quite complicated problems and trade wars.

I don't know your country but it seems you are in one of the African countries. Bro, don't let me deceive you, you are not right about this, and do not let anyone in your country deceive you or give you the vain relief that hardship is a global thing, most countries are not facing hardship, though the economy may be challenged. The world has faced enough and the countries with wise leaders overcome, however, if your country lacks wise leaders, it can result in something else where the hardship will be so bitting and become unbearable. I said that to prepare you as it often starts from inflation, and from there grow worse to hyperinflation and it could be so bad if food insecurity is now added to this due to the bad leadership and lack of productivity in the country caused by many negative factors.

This could now be happening in your country but I must tell you that it is not happening in all countries of the world, it could just be inflation in some places and not hyperinflation. Even though many countries are facing inflation, you should certainly know that it is not an automatic hardship for them, they are merely paying more, the two (inflation and hardship) are different things. Hardship is when people cannot afford to buy goods and hire services. Despite inflation in some countries, they can still afford it and not slip into the poverty level the way most African countries are increasingly slipping into the poverty index level, which includes Nigeria.

     The African country is only one of the countries listed in the world as a poor country, and life in that country is not easy. That's why the people there are doing their own thing just so they can survive the hardship they are going through.

     And it is difficult for the government of the African country to solve that for all the citizens that are also under their control. It has been going through several decades and is still facing a situation like that.

[KingsDen]

Currently in the world today.hardship is every where, it is not just a country problem but a universal phenomenon that is occurring rapidly. It is clearly seen that people are literally not able to eat even a square meal for a day. Especially those in under developed countries.hardship which is now a global spread has taken its roots in the world today. We now seat and face our day to day survival with no hope of what would happen next. Sincerely I think this great problem can be resolved if nations could come together and create a universal solution to it

The hardship is not global,  maybe we can say that what is global is inflation.  Some countries are doing absolutely well and her Citizens are doing great. Some other countries are still toiling the tunnel and there's no clear notification when the light will appear at the end of the tunnel.  The leaders of Some countries are just the greatest problem the countries have. Especially African leaders,  the embezzle the national treasury and export most of them to the Western countries where there colleagues accept them.

Calling for global Brotherhood is not easy to attain. The world is in continuous war, the several calls for peace have not yielded any result, so uniting to fight hunger might not be feasible because hunger is not the problem of most countries rather advancement of technology and Arsenal.

Am sure is not only Africans who are facing challenges but the only good thing is that our government has failed us and our system is not working what surprises me the most is our corrupt our leaders are and where they will not steal money they do not give attention to that. and I love one thing about we Africans we are fighters and we are doing everything possible to survive because of the nature of our countries. A time will come when all these things will be corrected and I know we are getting to that point very soon. just that is slow and people are tired of the way the government is operating not doing the proper things let it not get to a point people will turn against the government. That is when they will get what people are saying and that is when they will listen to people.

Hardship is an inevitable global crisis the world is facing and will continue to be a major problem. Even in developed country and with the best economy is till a problem.

The problem is very obvious right now that no one knows when everything will okay but it seems things are getting worse, leaders are finding it very difficult and are out of ideas to make the economy to be better.   I think this should be a time people needs not to depend in government so much, depending in government can be very disappointing and annoying when things keeps getting worst and the expected is not done.

One of the factors that really affect hardship is the world economy. COVID-19 ruined a lot of things, tho the effects are fading as time passes but it made very strong impact when countries were closing their borders and business couldn’t go on as usual. But yes, do not depend on the government to get you out of hardship or poverty, strive in every possible way that you can.

Yes, right. When the pandemic occurred, the economic difficulties in each country were very clear and many countries used this as a lesson when facing economic difficulties. Even though currently many countries are starting to return to normal after the pandemic, this is certainly not over yet, there will still be economic difficulties in the future. We as ordinary people should not expect more from the government to get out of poverty or face economic problems. This is where we need to turn the worst situation into an opportunity. Investment is a solution when the economy is not good.

In my country, many people suffer from poverty due to lack of education, parental mistakes, and use of illegal drugs. All these factors resulted in many crimes thereafter. Additionally, poor governance adds to the life cycle of many communities in my country from local to national levels. There is still corruption and manipulation. And I realized that it was this wrong attitude that made us poor. Therefore, it is difficult to wake up.

The solution does not only depend on the government or prayer, but we can also start from small steps, starting from ourselves. starting from small things starting from will and hard work.

[God bless u]

Yes it's a fact that hardship is very much increased nowadays and it has become difficult to Survive in this world. What we need to understand here is that we need to work for ourselves rather than working for others. We need to focus to grow our wealth rather than participating in others plans to make them earn and grow.

Entrepreneurship is a key that will lead people to beautiful lives. Life in which there will be no tension and fear of sleeping without eating properly. It's not about eating nowadays rather the wishes and standards of people have increased so much that they have raised their circles of wishes that's why it has become difficult to fulfill that long and deep circle.

[AVE5]

The same nation which you think of coming together to bring solutions to the hardened economy situation at now is the same national governments that structured the same hardship. So there's no way to depend on them bringing solutions to it unless they on their own has decided to bring an end to it. This happens when there are political bigots who has corrupted they governing and the economical systems of the people.
Something we and you should ask yourself is that what's really the bottom root of this situation on ground? Is it about climate changes? Not enough resources? Not enough manpowers? Lack of technologies or incompetent entrepreneural innovations?
I guess not because are these are being considered enough and sufficient to enhance the economy to a booster Instead of this crawlings.
It's very much oblivious that this ugly situation is a political infrastructures sentimenting against when masses while the riches getting richer.
At Op, things are going hard and rough for you, for me and some others but not everyone that are in this same situation because there are those who're hugely benefiting as a caused of this trending hardships while you are thinking everyone's in the mess together.
This is literally an infrastructure basically a benefitial portfolios that's adding more to the pockets of our looting leaders whom you Op thinks they're to bring forth solutions to the aid.

Let me just say this up and loudly, don't what for what the government would do for you for all hopes are lost in them and so, think about what you'd do for yourself else you'd perish and no one would care about eand not even the so expectant nations that's rebelling you.

[Egii Nna]

In today's world, suffering is everywhere, but this suffering is not for everyone. I don't think that powerful people have problems. Yes common people like us are suffering. Those who are always suffering or working hard all day and night to get rid of suffering. The government of any country can solve this problem. If there are syndicate traders who are not too profitable and conduct their business honestly, then the common people of the country can get relief from the hardships. At the same time, the government should also supervise the market so that the common people have normal access to the daily market goods and get some relief from the hardship. Currently, the world is going through various complications, due to various problems including wars, and natural environmental disasters, the common citizens of the whole world are going through a difficult environment.

Knows that hardship and suffering are one of the global disasters in almost every country. It is a nice one, but the main point we are to stand on is the solution, and when you depend on the government to do all that, you are not helping matters. Because when you are talking about hardship, you don’t select because the people leaving in that particular environment are those that will definitely suffer from it. If they come together, they can find a proper solution to their problem, but depending on the government is not usually recommended, so looking for solutions between you and the community members will be highly accepted.
 
For instance. The community is suffering a lot from hunger and a poor water supply. You know this is a critical issue that can cause death due to the suffering in the community. First, you will identify the problem: why is your community suffering from hunger and poor water supply? After identifying the main problem, you will move directly to the analysis and find a proper solution to the problem in the community. If the main problem is because there are fewer farmers or less importation of food items and other factors, you will create a solution for that. For the water supply, you can easily create a committee that will write a letter to the leaders of their community and follow up in order for the letter to go to the appropriate channel (government). Before that, you will bring out a temporary solution that is within the community. 
 
You see, in this problem, not only the government will not be included, but the community members have almost solved more than half of their community problems before approaching the government. This will even pique the interest of the government to come and intervene as early as possible. 

Entrepreneurship is a key that will lead people to beautiful lives. Life in which there will be no tension and fear of sleeping without eating properly. It's not about eating nowadays rather the wishes and standards of people have increased so much that they have raised their circles of wishes that's why it has become difficult to fulfill that long and deep circle.

Entrepreneurship is definitely the key, but most of the time people find it hard to understand because they are directly dependent. Most people who have such problems are not creative and only wait for someone else to come and give them all they need, which isn't possible. You, as a person with a problem, need to identify a solution for yourself without waiting for the government or someone else's opinion.
 
Because most people in this problem fail to do things according to their sources of income, and they don’t want to be creative in order to find another way that they will start getting income, which might help to reduce their needs because most of their needs are not tangible, but they put it as a most to achieve it. That is why I mostly say people find it difficult to differentiate between their wants and needs, which is the main problem that is causing this hardship and suffering around the globe.

One policy that I believe would be especially helpful is the adoption of a universal basic income (UBI). UBI is an idea in which every citizen will receive an adequate basic revenue, irrespective of their profession or financial level. This approach has the potential to reduce hunger and poverty while simultaneously promoting economic growth. Some countries, including as Finland, Canada, and Kenya, have already tested with UBI. Citizens and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) can play an important role in providing relief and support to those in need, while the World Bank can contribute assets and knowledge to help governments.

I think what you are really referring to is poverty.  Many households are experiencing hardship in terms of getting food, getting their income, and having their basic needs.  The United Nations are implementing development programs to assist nations to alleviate poverty and minimize income disparity.  I think it really boils down to the sinful nature of man.  People in power (or in government) taking advantage the taxpayers' money and use it for their personal interest and not to help their constituents.  As a result, the community will lack the necessities to help its citizens, increasing the poverty level of the community.

The government can’t save you from poverty that is solely your responsibility and it left for you to either make a move for a better life for yourself or you remain stagnant where you are. There are still poor people even in wealthy countries, we still have homeless people around despite their blossoming economy. Coming out of poverty solely depends on you and the actions you’ve made or about to make.  There is no country where corruption and manipulation doesn’t exist, they is so much we don’t know happening behind the scenes, Bill Gate one of the influential in the world once said “ it is not your fault if you come from a poor family,  but it your fault when you die poor”. They are lot of resources the world has given us to beat this matrix, not every one has that drive to beat the matrix. Government can only make life better and easy for their people and not feed them what to eat, you got to show some working too.
 However, it can only become worse when the government is not doing well enough, like you said in your country they are upraising of crime and vices going on in your country. These may result to lack to employment for the youth causing desperation in the country, this may lead to people taking laws to their hands. In a well organized country. Governmental body can only provide with 40% of resources to help people succeed, while the 60% is up to you. If you keep waiting for the government to put you on some kind of payroll when you are not working for them, then be prepared to face the dance of the talking drum. Go out there and make the difference. Show the world your potential and what you have to offer, make waves for yourself make sure you try to beat the matrix.

The universal can be reduced but it can not be permanently eliminated, a temporal phase that will become less inactive as the days pases by. No one really care about the hardship until they're affected. We can continue to grow in the system, it can be rapidly or slowing, but whatever happens, always ensure to be on the Wilmington paths. We can quenched our hope because it's definitely to fueled our motivation and bringing about the best results. Hardship are for those that finds it difficult explore in the current world.

dont wait for nations(governments) to come fix it
the problem stems from governments allowing capitalism to shine and thats where funds get trickled up from the individual and into the central(capital) of corporations

if you are personally going hungry try to do everything you can to resolve stuff happening in your home
waiting for someone else wont happen overnight

unless you are unemployed/homeless, (on income of poor/social security), there is always ways to find enough to feed/shelter yourself
many people lived prosperously and want to remain at that living standard even in tough times, but reality is in tough times people need to adjust lifestyle to live within their means

can you downsize your housing costs (move location/move to smaller home)
can you get overtime, an extra job, promotion. a new job
can you change utility providers to cheaper rates
can you find cheaper alternatives to your meals
can you cancel/unsubscribe from subscriptions or other monthly outgoings
if you have credit cards, debts, mortgages.
  - can you temporarily switch them all to interest only/minimum payments.
      - then using the extra you then have,  to pay off the smallest debt, and then repeat

Kinda sad that we can't really rely on the government for assistance when in the first place since History's oldest annals they were created for the sole purpose of helping the public, but you're damn right. You can't depend on a concept that is actively trying its best to deafen your screams for help and is constantly blind to your struggles.

So what to do right besides mutinying and making a living amongst the mountains with the tree people? Grind as much as you can that when things fall into place you wouldn't have to worry about how to find food to eat tomorrow. Living frugally is one of the best things you can do but if I may add up, you might want to learn a new craft or skill as well that pays great. If you're already in such a bracket then look into finding another job that would act as your side hustle. As of the moment you can't really rely on a sole stream of income to lift you out of poverty anymore, and that's true even for countries like Philippines where living expenses are a little bit cheaper than the rest of the world's. Find another income stream and use that to pile up on savings and investment ventures. Once you've accumulated enough wealth that your money-making systems are already sustainably generating income for you, you can drop it off and finally retire. That's the game plan today.

Difficulties will always be there if someone does not know how to solve the problems they face, but for those who are trying to find a way of resolution, of course, will find a path that will be faced because it is impossible for someone to find a solution from the difficulties they face if They do not try to find solutions, so it is important for us to try to find solutions from the difficulties we are facing and we must be sure of the abilities we have in order to have the motivation to find solutions to the difficulties we face.

Yes, of course, everyone has a different response from the difficulties that others are natural, for those who have a sense of mercy will certainly care about the difficulties of others and will help as much as they can solve the problem being faced by others, but there is also Those who do not want to care about the problems that other people face because they themselves have problems that they cannot solve.

Philippine government is just the same as other governments that are not helping its people. Our lawmakers are even drafting policies that will make us more vulnerable to capitalism as said by frank. More importers of products coming from other countries will come and the local producers suffer especially the farmers today who should have been the priority. We are a rice producer country but we import more rice.

The war in Middle East I think will cause more suffering as it can escalate even further since this is becoming a proxy war between powerful countries such as US, Russia and China. Those are the cause of higher price of oil and gas.

[Juse14]

It cannot be denied that the current situation is very difficult. They are small people who do not have savings or investments, and have an income that is only able to meet their needs, and sometimes they still lack it. Their current condition is truly worrying. And I felt quite concerned when I found news in the local media that there was an elderly woman who had not eaten rice for days because she could not afford it, and to satisfy her hunger, every day the old woman only cooked leaves without seasoning. This is a condition that is quite worrying, and I believe that this is not only happening in my country, but also in several other countries, especially underdeveloped and poor countries. However, the difference is, my country is a country rich in natural resources, where gold mines are everywhere but the people are not prosperous.

And of course, to overcome this gap, the role of the government is needed as well as good cooperation between countries. But when you see the condition of the government like this, which doesn't care about the welfare of the people, This makes me feel quite pessimistic that the difficulties that occur at the bottom of society can be resolved.

[lizarder]

Currently in the world today.hardship is every where, it is not just a country problem but a universal phenomenon that is occurring rapidly. It is clearly seen that people are literally not able to eat even a square meal for a day.

Then what can be done by some people who are unable to meet the need to eat and how the role of the government as one of the official institutions that is obliged to protect its people. I see this problem in a much smaller and lucky aspect in my region, there are no people who are unable to meet the needs of eating even though globally the source of income is so difficult to get now.

Especially those in under developed countries.hardship which is now a global spread has taken its roots in the world today. We now seat and face our day to day survival with no hope of what would happen next. Sincerely I think this great problem can be resolved if nations could come together and create a universal solution to it

Do not expect this to be resolved globally together because every country has its own interests for the process of sustainability of the state. If you want this problem to be resolved, see how the government makes a program for its people and even though the government cannot reach the entire poor but at least they have a special program to explore this problem. Every individual does not need to wait for a government program for eating problems because if they want to have a way out that can be taken

Look at how much vacant land is unproductive and not used and this should be an opportunity for the community to develop the agricultural sector. The country will prosper when the food sources they have are sufficient and able to accommodate the needs of the community. The problem arises when the country does not have land to develop the agricultural sector and the government should be able to develop other resources.
