How Poverty Leads to Social Injustice - 0 views

  •  
    This article talks about how closely linked poverty and social justice are. Those living in poverty are in their situation because that have not had equal access and opportunity. The best way to alleviate poverty is to focus on providing equal opportunity to everyone.

    I agree with statements made in the article about the inequalities that people who live in poverty suffer. Much of this social issue has to do a lot with race and legal status which often times determines eligibility for many programs that should be helping those in need. There is an overwhelming population over looked and discriminated against, adding more fuel to the fire. The number of people affected by poverty is concerning as there should be no reason that they are not receiving the help they need. Very informative article about the subject.

    I also agree how there are inequalities for people that are in poverty just because of their race and legal status also how it determines they are eligiliable for healthcare, and etc.

    I always knew that poverty was a major concern, but after reviewing this article it is truly heartwrenching to that 2 in every 3 child deaths can be avoided and the majority of these deaths are due to poverty.

    Poverty is a social injustice issue that needs to be talked about and have people be more aware of it as well. It is very sad to see people struggling due to poverty.

    Poverty is a real big issue and the bigger it gets the harder it is going to be to finding a solution. A big percentage of people who do live in poverty are veterans.
