Poverty is orchestrated by man.

[GeorgeJohn]

Poverty is not an accident but a systematic design by the government. To keep people under control. Government control minimum wage, inflation, taxation and education. All these can be used to orchestrate the poverty. If you think I am lying, look around you.

at this point we can believe you and we can also not to believe you, because there are some people who are rich today without being on the umbrella of government such a country, based on what you are saying you are only emphasizing on people who is being paid by the government or people who is working under the watch of government... Why we have so many people who is a self-employed and their generate what they eat by themselves without depending on the government, so so many of them meet up to become a billionaire through their self-employed so that is the area that I will disagree with you that poverty is not an asset and but it is systematically designed by the government so I disagree with these point of yours partially.

All great empires discovered the same secret. Turn poverty into a spiritual issue rather than a political one. “Blessed are the meek”. "Your reward comes after". Over the centuries, it worked for a long time. Somehow, people really began to think that wanting more is a sin.

Consider the actual implementation of consumption taxes. With a $30k income, somebody spends nearly every dollar. In other words, all their earnings are subjected to a second tax at the register. A person earning $3 million saves the majority of his or her earnings in capital gains tax rates that are lower than labor income tax rates. The structure itself makes the mechanism. There is no need to conspire if the math does it.

The most effective part of all this is when poor people start believing they deserve it. When the shame sets in and someone who's been underpaid their whole life thinks the problem is that they didn't hustle enough, didn't want it bad enough - that's when the design is finished. Complete. At that point, there is no need to implement external enforcement.

You said to look all around. I would also recommend to take a look at oneself. But the most advanced control system ever has been the one people defend, when they are not asked to.

That's right, and that's why the state likes to keep the clergy on a short leash. But just 50 years ago, the government was very angry with the clergy, saying that the holy fathers were misleading ordinary citizens instead of educating them with science and popularizing the scientific view of things. But now this course has not been in effect for a long time, unfortunately, the clergy is such a government-led startup to control citizens. Who want to flock to churches like sheep and don't ask uncomfortable questions about the economic component of the country.

Poverty has already existed before governments, taxation, banks, or even the education system we know today. Throughout our history, you understand that poverty. Is as a result of wars, natural disasters lack of resources, and corruption etc. but I still believe that some government policies and institutions can increase poverty if it’s not well managed. When there is corruption, poor education people can be trap In difficulties for years. Which means that some system can still contribute to poverty, even if poverty was never created by design. Bitcoin came with a different idea. It gives people more control over their money without relying on banks. I know bitcoin is not automatic solution to poverty. Financial education, productive work, and stable policies still play an important role.
So, there are system and policies that can reduce the rate of poverty in a nation. So the best thing is to identify those challenges and look for good  alternative that we reduce the rate of poverty instead of assuming that there’s only one cause that’s behind poverty.

[Nightwatchmare]

Well, that is absolutely true, I fully agree with you that poverty is a man made construct that  driven by systematic inequalities, flawed economic policies and unequal resources distribution rather than a natural disaster. But, you can see that in the beginning man is always greedy , you look at the people in position today most especially, people in the government they will always want to be call sir/ma, they will always want to be served, who will you think will do that, it is the poor. So, this people in power will make sure that they do everything possible in their power for poverty to remain the talk of the day.

[alastantiger]

Bitcoin came as a way to destabilize the system. Let's be honest with ourselves, can anyone point out in history where poverty is naturally occuring or by design?

Poverty has always been the way the rich keeps the poor under their control, right from the ancient time the rich has always have slaves and this slaves are the poor ones which ones in a while one of them levels up to the height of being above poverty but many other times a lot of them remain at their poor level and this have been the way both the rich and the government have been controlling people. Poverty is a mentality and for you to overcome this mentality you have to be willing to get above the program and become self aware of your self because wealth comes from a higher source that many people are unable to reach since they all have the same poor mentality. The world respects the rich and don't value the poor hence there is no benefit being poor that is why you have to fight all the demons you can in other to elevate yourself from the status of being a poor person to becoming a rich person.

I don't think that there's a need to divide for an equal distribution of natural disaster. 
But that's a real thing there that the difference of the wealth of the rich and poor is too far that the poor barely touch the rich. While the rich getting rich, the system is being favored to them. And for the poor people, they're the less privileged ones although a lot of poor people in the past managed to get out of the rat race and have been inspired that they won't live poor forever so they work their way out.

Poverty is not an accident but a systematic design by the government. To keep people under control. Government control minimum wage, inflation, taxation and education. All these can be used to orchestrate the poverty. If you think I am lying, look around you.

Banks charge the poor and give the wealthy leverage. Is that not one angle poverty is by design. The education system teaches you to be employees not entrepreneurs. Religion too has been used to control people.

You have said it all and i agree with you, poverty is systemic design by the government because they have the power to control the economy and control everything in the country, if the government have the power over bitcoin they will have also cancel it because they are happy to see poor people being control by them, despite paying the taxes and study to be employed by the same government that want the people to be educated, the people will end up being an entrepreneur and independent people who are working to escape poverty and that have create a lot of doubt for the youths that school is a scam because after spending money that we can to use to settle ourselves for future to study we will end up without having a job.

It cannot be denied that OP has a point. Poverty is not entirely random but is a systematic plan. However, that does not mean that the poor have completely lost the opportunity to escape poverty and become wealthy.

As you said, many entrepreneur and billionaires have become wealthy through their own businesses without any assistance from or dependence on the government. And history is full of people who started from nothing and eventually became wealthy

Therefore, we should not blame the government entirely for our poverty. Instead, we should look at ourselves. Why is it that those people, and many others around us, able to successfully escape poverty while we could not?

You are not lying, you simply aren't providing any solution to the problem. Thinking that Bitcoin is the ultimate solution, that would put and end to global poverty is simply stupid. Can poor people afford to buy lots of BTC? No. Will the BTC price increase 10x or 20x in the next few years?
I don't think so. Will Bitcoin suddenly make people educated? How can Bitcoin improve the education and the healthcare systems?
Taxation makes people poor? You do realize that you have to pay taxes over your BTC earnings and capital gains, right?
I know that the system favors the rich, but do you really believe that Bitcoin favors the poor? Most Bitcoin/crypto investors are extremely wealthy.
I'm not criticizing Bitcoin. BTC is a tool and you have to use it for your own benefit, but please don't add any miraculous features to Bitcoin.

You are right about this, when I was in school from childhood I saw how the teacher always asked about the ideals that were always suggested in the profession of work in a government agency or workers in the company, no one ever suggested being a businessman or entrepreneur, from this education system down to make a gene4ration remain a worker, and that is why every company must have certified education requirements, because school is a form of human formation that wants to be organized in a system of direction that has been made for diligent work.
 
Taxes and inflation become a real companion to stay at the bottom, and it is also necessary to understand that the discussion of money in school is very taboo, even though money is an important support in life.

It is obviously true that schools specifically emphasize career paths within established organizations rather than entrepreneurship. But it is worth considering that a stable workforce is important for any economy to function, and not everyone has the risk tolerance for business ownership even if we were not really giving an option. That said, the complete lack of basic financial education regarding taxes and inflation is a major flaw that definitely keeps people at a disadvantage. But come to think of it education was built by entrepreneurs so we don't expect an entrepreneur to build other entrepreneurs instead he finds the need to create more employees to make the system work perfectly for him cuz basically human beings are selfish in nature.

Poverty is a system designed by man to keep some people ahead of others because the honest truth is that if everybody was well to do most people that use people as objects or tools wouldn't have that opportunity but like I said this was designed to keep some people in a certain level where they are dependent you can call it the matrix. But there are different opportunities we have now that has given a lot of people the knowledge they need to break out of this trap and become financially independent. If you don't rely on the government for anything you are a free person.

Poverty is more a mental state and consequence of mental laziness. 
People choose what they wish to do, if they believe that travel, and consume are the essence of life poverty will be around the corner.

I agree that businesses must run and companies must have people working, but in a potential selection scenario, not all of them will become entrepreneurs, but when forced to become employees, people who have the potential to become new pioneers can become people who can only become professional workers.
That is the problem that most of the education system used is a model created by entrepreneurs designed for the benefit of their business, very few schools provide education for the development of personal talents and are more innovative to produce much better productivity, most are printed to become factory workers or laborers whose standardization is completely limited.
