First a quote from the bible the poor will always be with us even 3000 years ago they realize this.
As for the progressive (liberals) and conservatives the problem is progressive do not realize their philosophy can never work and here is why! For the elimination of poverty to be successful means you do not rely on government,but many politicians need to keep a certain segment of our population poor so they can always promise to raise them out of poverty thus keeping them in power, I hope you see the paradox there. The kindest thing you can do for a human being is not to feed him fish for a day but teach him how to fish so he can feed himself for a lifetime Ads |

Because you cannot end poverty unless those people get themselves out of poverty.
For example there is a direct correlation between the high-school dropout rate and poverty. There is a direct correlation between drug use and poverty. There is a direct correlation between teenage pregnancy and poverty. if you want to lift people out of poverty - you have to get them to change themselves. |

It's because they (being politicians & religious leaders) are too busy trying to run and save every other country.
We constantly see the news about starvation, poverty & overcrowding in other countries as well as websites and phone numbers to call & give donations. How bout charity starts at home. How can we, as a country tell all these other countries how to run & treat people when we have so many people here who need help & can't get it????????? Ads |

Nobody in the politics care about it. Is all about money and power. With the money they expend in this stupid war we can provide health or education for millions.... it is a shame
