I dont think this is accurate that would mean that all who are impoverished are criminal or greedy? so how does that make them impoverished?

Yes, it is fact. Due to poverty we cannot do many things in our life. Otherway due to poverty many peoples are becoming rich utilizing proverty-prone people and country. Due to poverty some organizations are engaged in proverty alliviation program and becoming hugh rich grasping money of poors. So proverty will not end and this disease will not cure from world age to age.

Poor people are less fortunate. They suffer so much lack in almost everything. My neighbors - have many children. Each have 8 to 9 children. Just imagine how can they feed them well. The mother work as a laundry woman. Occasionally she do household chores in the neighborhood. Some do not even send their children to school. What will be the future of their children who does not know how to read or write. They have parents - but they look like they are abondoned in the street. They look so dirty and wears clothes that are too big or worn out. If you want to help them tell me. I know many poor people in our place. You can come and give them some hope.

I'd say it's one of the worst diseases. But I'd also add ignorance up there in the top 5.

Yes poverty is something undesirable that lowers our mood every day.But I also think we should fight to beat it not to complain about it because that way all we do is to destroy our mental health.

In any society no matter how much there is it will be those who have the least that are considered to be impoverished. If we raise that level we just create more who are at the minimum level. I think we should state it more precisely. Like those who cannot have housing or food etc...
