    This article is about what causes poverty. I like how it goes into the social and cultural details that come with poverty. It talks about mental aspects of poverty, not just physical.

    You are right! I really like how it had many aspects to how poverty effects people. I thought it was a very interesting article.

    This article is full of information about how poverty starts and keeps on growing with no help of stopping it. There are many factors and causes that are explained on how families or individuals can't pull themselves out of poverty. I think that when they were explaining the causes of disease, then said that the knowledge of a cause won't solve it, but knowing the factors that lead it it will help us to better understand the ways to fix it. I think that this is very true and should be aware to all.

    Very in depth. I love the detail they put into it. It talks about all of it instead of just one part of it.

    Factors do not cause problems, but merely contribute to make the matter worse. This article speaks of the five major factors of poverty: Disease, Ignorance, Apathy, Dishonesty, and Dependency. The article speaks on each matter in turn, and explains each topic. I found this article quite intriguing, and very truthful. It definently deserves a read-through.

    this shows the results of poverty and how it affects world hunger. I was very surprised after i read about how much things most people that are being affected by poverty can't get. I was also very surprised on how many children die of poverty in under 5 years.

    This site gave me a lot of useful new facts without adding a lot of fluff. I found it interesting and an easy to read if you dislike your topic and would otherwise give up.

    D: That's so sad.I know there are a lot of people out there who can't get the kind of healthcare they need, and I know a ton of people who go to the hospital often. If there are that many in my neighborhood, I wonder how many can't afford to go to the hospital.

    This article was really sad, I couldn't believe that over 250,000 children die from hunger each week. I think it gave lots of good information without too much to read.

    Great article. It was sad but atleast it wasn't trying to hide the truth or make it sound not as bad as it is. The fact that so many children die cannot be ignored...

    With so many children dieing I almost wish people wouldn't have babies if they can't feed them because in the end the child will die.

    Its disappointing because at the end of world war 2 scientist that with the advancement of technology, poverty would disappear but it didn't ;(
