The world suffers from hunger, disease, war and unwisdom. The people cry out for help. At the moment, destroyed the capitalist globalization of human relations to each other. The rich are getting richer and there are more poor people. Over 1 billion people around the world suffer from extreme poverty. Extreme poverty is chronic malnutrition, poor health care, not enough to have to live. More than ten million children die annually from malnutrition and preventable diseases.
If the world were a village of 100 inhabitants, then a man is super rich. He owns a third of the country and 30% of the village's assets. 20 people including 80% of the total wealth of the village. It is their material well. They have far more than they need. They form the rich upper class of the village, the large landowners, the capitalists, the ruling class. They include most of the newspapers, radio stations and television stations. You can use it to greatly influence public opinion.
40 people have enough money. They live as small farmers, workers, employees and small self-employed. 40 people (40%) are the poor. Half of them are undernourished or starving directly. In her area of ??life there is no adequate disease prevention, severe addiction problems (drugs, alcohol) and an escalating crime. You live in a slum on the outskirts of the village and eat from the garbage dump.
According to the Human Rights Charter of the United Nations is sufficient food a human right. The rich are therefore obliged to leave the hungry people from their money so much that everyone can buy enough to eat. In addition, there are in the Charter of Human Rights, the human right to work. The rich are furthermore obliged to make way for the entire unemployment earth work them enough land to make available, or the countries of the world to provide enough money for job creation schemes.
There is the possibility of adequate taxation, privacy laws for the poor and agrarian reform. There is the possibility of a Global Marshall Plan and a global eco-social market economy. And there is the possibility that the poor can organize and assert their rights together. There are many organizations around the world who work for a better future. I call on to support them. Every person should, within its means to contribute to making our world from sinking into chaos one day, but reaches a happy future.
The external wealth has doubled over the West in the last fifty years. At the same time the number of depression has increased tenfold. If we look closely we can see that the Western capitalism leads to large external wealth in a few people and a large internal unhappiness with more people.
The model of Western consumer capitalism is a bad example for the world. Capitalist globalization will bring a few super-rich, a little wealth for a small middle class and a massive impoverishment of a large underclass. She is outwardly huge slums, generate a lot of crime and major drug problems. The mass of men is the predominant focus on external values ??inside not happy, but unfortunately.
If we make no wisdom in the capitalist globalization so on, destroying the environment, poverty and the large uncontrollable mental impoverishment of the people are horrible. It will forever be senseless wars distribution. The world must be based on the inner happiness and brotherhood organyz comprehensive new. We need a globalization of love and reason.
The world community should be centered in the principles of universal love, world peace, inner happiness for all, enough work for all, enough food for all, and adequate health care for all. By combining ecological, social and spiritual thinking can succeed in building a happy world.

The problem you described is no impact of globalization, it was previously nonexistent. And it is by no means certain that globalization exacerbates this problem because you should take a closer look.
In your question, there are different aspects and levels.
It would be wrong to put all responsibility on the state. In this question you are asked as individuals and as a member of a community.

Hi my friend,
The problem of poverty it was before, but today is the first time mankind material capable of creating a happy world for all. I am indeed a supporter of justice, a do-gooder, someone who cares about the suffering of people around the world worried. I see humanity as one family, all contribute to the happiness of the whole family.
Nice day

hi,
for me,i think the only way to fight and prevent poverty in the world is in the hand of government,if they will only not corrupted and use the money to all people for their employment and also lessen the price of all goods that people needs for their daily needs i think poverty will gradually lessen until it will gone.

Oops, another do-gooders. It's always been so and it will always remain so as long as we humans have: The rich are getting richer and the poor get poorer. Nobody can change what is fact. Nobody, as long as greed and envy lie dormant within us.
Have a nice day.

I think that everyone should eat his plate first and only so much shopping space as is needed really. because the dropping of food from the bears witness to much respect for the manufacturer. And generally it's a distribution problem.
Because once saw a show on TV, where it was reported that African farmers receive aid for poultry farms and have it worked up ... and so are cheaper than at home were bred chicken farmer and the unemployed back to chicken parts from Europe exported there were because of the cheap chicken parts. And even with high transportation costs.

We are creating the global economy very well capable of poverty from the world, but has no major politicians or shareholders' REALLY! Interest (Does it cost any money, too). And we have to move to a global phase, we currently do not get out easily.
People need to change your mindset from the ground up, especially in Europe and America that will happen but only if the world economic shake, and we object to the survival MUST work together! Many people change only when it is unavoidable.
