A flat sales tax for the whole country, health care for every individual. Benefits for those that help others, benefits to be determined. There are in fact many ways for the overseeing government to establish the rules and guidelines for helping everyone to be a contributing member to society. 30 days just would not be enough really!

The most important thing that you have said in your post is benefits for helping others this will encourage people to come out and help the poor.

30 days? is that possible? i will make a law. in there would state that every vacant lot of a property be it a government or private should have a vegetable garden and livestock of any kind they like. the gardener should be those who are jobless, if they refuse to do the job, they dont eat. silly eh? but it makes sense. lol.

I do not think that one can completely remove poverty from anywhere. There are just some people who will always be at the bottom of the financial ladder regadless. However, I will help minimize poverty by preparing people against the facts and harshness of life: I will educate people to learn to appreciate what their various nation and continent offer and to learn to capitalize on those readily available natural resources, rather than busy looking at the greener grass acoss the street that often is not that greener! Alhough most people are poor because of national injustice, there are a good number that are poor because they would not use their minds to make the most out of what their nation has to offer.

it is not possible to remove poverty in30 days....if such a thing happens:then the amendments will be-1.to channelize the foreign fund that is coming for them for their benefit only.....2.make a point that every government owned school have some seats reserved for the financially backward students....3.try and provide jobs to the unemployed poor....and many more too...

If by chance i was given an absolute power that nobody can question my power. I will balance the wealth of my constituent. Commonweath as a whole. The rich will share to the poor.
