    you are right! those are ten amazing ideas and end poverty everywhere!
  •  
    I think that the second way of ending poverty isn't a way as much as an idea because clearly everybody disserves it and should have it but there not.
  •  
    This was cool. Maybe as phoenix we could take some of these ideas.
  •  
    The 2nd one should be for everyone, no matter what...
  •  
    I agree Kristen! Maybe could raise more awareness for the 7th graders.
  •  
    i think we should find a big island with a lot of recouses and build it up a little bit and transport all the poverty people there and they can function like an independent collective society were its eaisyer to help each other

    A website explaining a little bit about who's in poverty and gives a few graphs to show the poverty rates. I think helps in seeing the problem and applying that to what you know with words.
  •  
    I found it interesting that poverty rates have droped world wide, but the rate of people likely to slip into poverty is rising.

Causes of Poverty - 0 views

  •  
    This is a short, simplen paragraph, that does exactly what the title says. It really made me upset reading it, because poverty happens everywhere, and can happen to anyone. Sometimes, it isn't anyone's fault. Some people are born into it. And poverty can be a result of no enough education. I feel very fortunate that both my parents have good jobs, and are educated. I know that some people aren't that lucky.
