i had this argument with a friend who recently joined an activist group...according to him he did this to show his dpeth love for our country by fighting for our rights in the streets...what i told him was i dont have any grudges on people doing this i even admire them for thier courage to do so...but i chose not to join this group but instead i will go to this less fortunate people in thier own place to teach them how to live life, give them courage to live by prividing thier immidiate needs like food and teachign them how to deal with poverty without blaming it all to the government... if you are to iradicate poverty on what fight will you go for? thnks...

Finland has lots of poverty, and the goverment is to blame for much of it, but the true cause lies much more in attitudes, because Finland is plenty in opportunities aswell as for money, products and services. I encourage people to make money, tell them how they can find a job, start a business, decrease taxes, open their eyes to the abundance of possibilities in our country. Moneywise I do nothing. As far as government goes, well I vote. I've also many times found myself planning a new party, but that hasn't made any progress. I rather stick to education and making myself wealthy and able to provide more jobs and better knowlegde to those around me. Worldwide I donate monthly to Unicef, which I regard as an investment to the future.
