Mass poverty is the consequence of various factors, all of which ultimately stem from greed. In reality, there are opportunities for people to change their economic status, it is a matter of choice, but greedy individuals are often better positioned to exploit such situations. Ignorance and money politics together contribute to why a nation remains trapped in poverty.
I do not laugh at poverty itself; however, when I hear people consciously state that they will vote for a leader simply because that leader pays them, that is what compels me to laugh.
I want to share more light on this, the only few group of people that laughs in a bad economy are those who are benefitting from the bad economy, if we trace it back to bad leadership you will see that those people are indirectly benefiting from those bad leaders.
Bad economy is something that every person in the country should be angry about, mid class, low class or high class, but when you start seeing only a class fighting for a change there is already a bigger problem at hand.
The fight won't change anything, if a class don't want to buy milk for $5 per can and others like mid class and high class are buying it, the scream and pain of the low class that can't afford $5 per can milk won't be heard.
