Poverty Paper

“It turns out that advancing equal opportunity and economic empowerment is both morally right and good economics, because discrimination, poverty and ignorance restrict growth, while investments in education, infrastructure and scientific and technological research increase it, creating more good jobs and new wealth for all of us.”-William J. Clinton

Poverty is hunger. Poverty is lack of shelter. Poverty is being sick and not being able to see a doctor. Poverty is not being able to go to school, not knowing how to read, and not being able to speak properly. Poverty is not having a job, fear for the future and living one day at a time. Poverty is losing a child to illness brought about by unclean water. Poverty is powerlessness, lack of freedom

Poverty has many faces, changing from place to place and across time, and has been described in many ways. Most often poverty is a situation people want to escape. So poverty is a call to action for the poor and the wealthy alike - a call to change the world so that many more may have enough to eat, adequate shelter, access to education and protection from violence. Poverty has become a crucial fact worldwide and has a great influence on economic development. In order to improve the quality of education for students living in poverty, one must first look at the day-to-day struggles these students face.

Poverty a result from lack of education. People don't go to school will find jobs that are more difficult than others. They might have to do a badly-paid jobs that take their health a lots. Another reason lead to poverty is laziness because there aren't companies willing to accept an idle employee into their company. In addition, poverty is a cause of wasting of money. For example, they use money for building luxury houses, shopping and buying modern equipment to use.

Poverty effects many aspects of people life. They have to live in a bad houses, wear ugly clothes, they can't go out for an expensive meal, eat delicious food and have the worst healthcare. Hence, it may change a human's character. For instance: they get furious easily with their relative so the atmosphere is often boiling. Some people even become robbers when they run out of money. They steel money or expensive things that appear in front of their eyes.

The country will develop quickly without poverty. In my opinion, the government should care about poorer people more and more by many different ways to help them like charity programs. Besides, they should encourage everybody to get education because this a unique way that people can escape poverty.
