poverty is really getting worse here in our country...the prices of goods at the market just gets higher and higher...but the wages of the workers here are not even increasing...many families are already suffering..and the bad thing is that many children are also suffering and worst dying because of malnutrition..

Unfortunately, poverty appears to be commonplace in every country, including the United States

Oh I think it is so sad to think there are people out there that just don't have enough food, with all the money that is being wasted in this world not just on wars and space exploration which would help solve this problem with that money wasted but also the companies that throw away good food as i put in another discussion companies in some countries throw away all double yoke eggs...and this when there is kids out there that are starving...shame shame shame
