Current Issues..(Poverty)

Poverty refers to the condition of not having the means to afford basic human needs such as clean water, nutrition, health care, education, clothing and shelter.Around the world, in rich or poor nations, poverty has always been present.In most nations today, inequality, the gap between the rich and the poor is quite high and often widening.

The causes are numerous, including a lack of individual responsibility, bad government policy, exploitation by people and businesses with power and influence, or some combination of these and other factors.
Many feel that high levels of inequality will affect social cohesion and lead to problems such as increasing crime and violence.Inequality is often a measure of relative poverty. Absolute poverty, however, is also a concern. World Bank figures for world poverty reveals a higher number of people live in poverty than previously thought.


I think the effect of poverty will effect most on children and oman especially baby that needs fulls of nutrition and a nice place to live in.f the baby don't get the enough needs of a baby,it will effect the brain development of a baby..Moreover,babies needs to adapt a good environment.I think the governments needs to takes more drastic actions to solve this problem...
