Why are majority of people really poor?

[kryptqnick]

We live in a world where a person’s value is measured by productivity, not humanity. But even if someone is poor, they should still have access to basic needs — healthcare, education, rest. Not luxury, but enough to live without fear or pain. That sort of mindset could help reduce poverty, in my opinion.
As for reasons for poverty, I believe that they are intertwined. For instance, a lack of good education is related to unemployment and both are related to financial debt.
But it is the social inequality and global challenges like climate changes and wars coming back in fashion which lead to poverty or at least are the reasons why making progress in combating poverty is so hard.

It's a statistical fact that most children are born into poor families and poor countries. From birth, they are deprived of access to quality education and a nurturing environment for well-rounded development. As a result, they get little schooling and are forced to start working at a young age.

Even if they possess some brilliant skills, they'll likely never get the chance to develop them because their entire life is a daily struggle for survival—just to put food on the table

That is true, many children from poor homes face big challenges and really lack a lot of access to things that  can develop  and build them, whereby a kid from rich home get easily and that is why rich kids often look brighter and sharper than a kid born in a poor home, but some still  make it through hard work and opportunity that are present to them. Poverty is very  hard , but it doesn’t always decide a person future.

My point is, being poor isn’t actually a choice nor a fate, because there are really factors that no matter how you work on it, but still it prevents you from rising up and create such progressions. One big factor is wrong governance. People will never get out from poverty traps if the government officials do not perform their roles in the right and meaningful way.

In this case anyone who was born poor but decides to remain poor because the government agencies failed to perform their duties by creating opportunities for them is lazy. Right now everyone is aware that the economy is bad and the government is doing very little things to salvage the high rate of inflation you have to stand up and hustle to ensure you get out of poverty you don't need to wait for the government to do it for you wealth is now a choice you make your ways by getting skills to help yourself if you don't get employed by the government.

Its true personal value is quantified by productive and not  humanity but that is in the past, now personal value is measured by the calibers of people you know instead of its original quantifying characteristics all because of corruption. Corruption is the main reasons for poverty. taking Africa as a case study, they are richly blessed with all manner of mineral resources but mismanagement caused by corruption has changed everything making life unbearable when life is supposed to be fair for them.
Taking the above mentioned statement as reference point, thus that mean that inside the 70 percent people living in poverty in Africa that there no educated once there?

Of course that is the way to easily figure out those who are lazy because they entirely depends on government to make things right for them. Yes I know it's the core duty for the government to make everything available for her citizens but I am not In support of those who keeps sleeping and folding their arms waiting for their government to make things right is just as lazy as you said. People should learn to know how to build themselves up than entirely relying on government creating jobs opportunities while there are people out there who creates jobs opportunities others without even depending on the government to make everly available for them.

No, it's never the duty of the government to make everything available for her citizens if you think so then you are getting it all wrong cause the government doesn't put food on your table or pay your bills they create a working environment make the economy become good while you have access to good road, electricity, they create employment opportunities and help protect lives and property by providing security for her citizens but you are responsible to get a job to ensure you have a better life you don't wait for them to pay you when you are not working. If there is no job you have to figure out things you can do to assist yourself so that you will it become a liability to yourself.

I don't know if I am to blame the government or individuals.

There is no actively sensible means of currency or savings in most countries that remains reliable, hence most people are losing money not gaining it while working.
    In the past you had one working wage per household, now most often there is two and still there is not the means to do well often, hence the recognition that too many peoples are struggling.
 It can also be that people are wasting too much money but its also the case that the common currency is flawed and subject to frequent inflation, that benefits government debt and deficit in their fiscal budget.

    You'd think this would be a problem for everyone but its less of a problem for those with asset wealth, sometimes people realize the economy is biased to the retired over the working and it wont be those retired with no assets but people who are not working but have asset wealth gain from the bias to the system.  Same as companies or any large entity, its a bias which benefits them and can destroy  working people especially the working poor.

  Its been true for decades and been called out by many but if anything its getting worse with the gradient of debt accumulation growing steeper, there's no chance of reducing the debt or running a balanced budget in most countries.   Right now there is a ramp up towards defence or war depending how you view it which is money taken from the countries population to buy weapons that will kill those same populations paying for them.
