Poverty been systematic design by the government isn't a good idea I really think we shouldn't blame the government always in a society filled with global and digital opportunities despite blaming the government always we still have rich and wealthy people in the society . Come to think of it people who end up becoming rich has the poorest story background probably not all but majority of the great men we have started from the bottom even the government we all blame today are individuals who worked their way out to success and greatness
tho, poverty is an economic and global disaster in a society but I see it as a state of the mind . there's always a saying the poor man mentality who an individual is and will become depends on the mind I always see the mind as the general key to success define who an individual truly is the question we should be asking ourselves is how far an individual ready to walk his or her way to greatness despite the bad governance any one can be the best version of themselves doesn't matter the government or neither their policies individuals should be consistent in working hard and also working hard towards the way they think
Everything you said is true but not entirely true either. Indeed, mindset and hard work are the main determining factors for people to get out of poverty. Like you said out there many successful people started from scratch because they took advantage of technological development opportunities like today, combined with hard work. But this is only a part of it, so on a national scale it can be said that this is a failure of the system because it is the responsibility of the country's leadership to help its people get out of poverty.
When a bad government doesn’t completely shut down someone’s desire to succeed as long as they can stay consistent, disciplined, and think long-term to achieve success. However, if in a country there is still widespread poverty, the government should be blamed and we should also suspect that maybe they are deliberately keeping their people poor. Sometimes poverty is intentionally designed systematically to control the population through minimum wages, inflation, taxes, education, banking regulations and all of this can make things worse or keep people living in poverty. Even if some manage to escape poverty it’s only a small portion.
