Why some people are still poor?

some people are cheating and getting unlawful wealth, which is why many people becomes poor.

It is the will of God. Some are destined to remain poor all their life while some others achieve dizzy heights of glory.

There are only a small percentage of the population who genuinely are poor and have nothing they can do about it. I work hard for my money but i know many people who choose to stay home for no reason and be paid for it. I think government is completely to blame. Think about it - these people home all day doing nothing have more time to vote at election time. The cushier they have it the more likely they are to keep that same government in power. I think its a huge form of social control with the governments highly responsible!

I don't really know how to react on this. When I work in a foreign country I saw that people are so workaholic. You can't find any bystanders in the streets or anywhere even in the mall you can't find anyone just walking around, window shopping or whatsoever. If they go to the mall they make sure that there's really a need to or perhaps a family bonding on weekends. Even old people in their place like 50-year-old plus are still working in big companies as factory worker. Then, when I went home in my country I saw lot of people doing nothing. Lot of bystanders in the streets so with the mall. Lot of degree holder people still have no work. Neighbors doing chit-chats and sometimes can cause fight with the other neighbor. In short, I was so disappointed during that time and how I wish I was born in the other country. But, when i decided to get married and stay in my country I may say WOW as in WOW I really having a hard time looking for a job. I may say that I'm well experienced but still no one would hire me 'cause I'm overage at the age of early 30s. What they gonna hire is up to 28 yrs old. If qualified for a job still the employer won't hire me 'cause they think I'm gonna demand for a higher rate. Oh yeah, we can blame the government, aside from being so corrupt, they don't have plans for individuals. You can't apply for the government if you don't know anyone working there like it's a whom-you-know basis not what-you-know. They don't even give priorities for ex-OFWs. The sad thing is for now the government is giving money to people who can't afford to eat 3xaday. I'm not saying that I don't want them to eat what I want to imply is why give them a job! It will help them in the long run. It's too spoonfeeding. Makes them more lazy. Worst is some people pretends to be poor just to be included in the list.
