 CAN WE END POVERTY?

There has been poverty all over the years. For the first time in history we start paying attention to those who suffer poverty and its consequences. For many as me, the erradictaion of poverty is just an utopia, because it has never happened, there would always be someone who would be more rich or poor than you, it’s impossible to be equal, but we have to fight to overcome the injustice in the world, and try to do a better place. Many people are sufering poverty and we don’t know they feel, how it is to be a poor person.

​

These image answers the last question. We see a midle-aged man next to a automatic teller machine, and for these we can think tat he lives in a developed country, where poverty also exists. What is he thinking about? All his dreams are gone,just look at his face and the way he looks to the cup of McDonalds. Capitalism is good, in many ways, but it also has problems, because in capitalism there’s always people who win and people who loose. But there’s a more serious problema. This guy not only has lost all his wealth and money, but his integrity and his soul. The pepole seeing hi mat the street they look at him and think he is garbage just because he is a homeless. You cannot judge a person by his appearence or social status.

 

In a welfare society, we can think that we live so well because it is a better State than other States who can not provide the resources that can provide the welfare society. But what we don’t know is that these western states are so wealty because of the poverty of others.
