So many people are interested in amassing wealth without giving a dime to the less privilege around them, yet they will still be among the first to criticize the government in its failure to eradicate hunger and poverty in the country. You should also know that the duty of eradicating poverty must not be left to the government alone. You must also contribute your quota.
 
If you have worked to be wealthy or lucky to be one, you should see it as a social responsibility to help the less privileged people in the society. If I may ask, do you feel comfortable driving past several beggars on the street when you have billions of money in your account that you or your entire family may not be able to exhaust in the next 100 years?
 
Think about this seriously. With the so much money in the world, poverty can greatly be reduced if not totally eradicated.
 
All that is necessary is the distribution of this wealth.

There is enough to go round.

Note:
You must not necessarily give physical cash or money directly in order to help the poor or the less privileged. You can set up an empowerment scheme where they could be empowered or work to earn a living for themselves. It is like teaching them how to fish instead of offering them the fish directly to eat. I guess it is best that way.

Eradicating poverty completely is very much possible with the efforts you mentioned but I also do feel some beggars do it on intention as they don't want to work hard for their living and they find it easy to beg(Not in all cases of course). Governments and people are doing it as much as possible to help eradicate it by making NGO's and self-awareness centers and many other things.

Lastly, a person has to be determined to push himself out of poverty the help which he needs to do that will definitely be supplied from some sources.

There are a lot of wrong statements in your post. A lot of wealthy people worked hard for that wealth, and no luck was involved. They deserve to live a comfortable life. A lot of poor people are not poor because they were unlucky, some are just lazy.

A typical example of this was when the Berlin Wall was broken down. Some of the people who was living in East Germany was simply not used to working hard and they were lazy too. So when the Wall came down, a lot of them went into poverty, because they were too lazy to work or they were not used to the concept of hard work = higher income, like in the west.

The Communist system in East Germany made them lazy and some of them could not handle the change. So, Capitalism is not all bad, people are encouraged to work harder for a chance of a better life.

I give more than 10% of my income to charities that are helping poor people find jobs and a way to sustain them until they reach that goal. Teach them how to Fish!

Absolutely ridiculous, this is the type of bootlicking that is destroying the world.  THE MAJORITY of wealthy people get rich off the work of wage slaves.  All the pfoits go to the shareholders and Executives.  You are seriously dillusional, the hardest working people on this planet are dirt poor. Wake up! You are very brainwashed.

Stop talking crap, because you are only making a ass of yourself. My father had very humble beginnings and he worked hard to build a very successful business. In the end he had 1040 people working for him and he paid them respectable wages. None of these people were slaves, they fed their families and they had a decent living standard.

If everyone sat back and just waited for a social hand-out, then poverty will never be eradicated. Some wealthy people built an empire to serve themselves and THIS provided jobs for other people.

I paid for my own education and I did not go into the family business, because I wanted to stand on my own two feet and do it all on my own. I am currently employed and happy to participate in charities to create jobs for other people.  Wink

Yes, some assholes exploit poor people and they pay them less than the minimum wage to work like slaves, but a LOT of wealthy people are not assholes and they provide very good job opportunities and uplift the lives of millions of people around the world.  Wink

giving jobs or opening jobs to poor people who do not have a job is a good step, but the problem is how long they will be able to compete with technological advances, because in my experience people do not have jobs because they are lazy people

It is still poor those that area unit creating wrong selections in their life and zip else. If they ever got educated then they will have jobs in their hands and thereupon job they will virtually begin overcoming their life scenario that is presently thus known as poor. i do not assume that we must always be doing one thing for them tho' we have a tendency to had cash as a result of you recognize can|what is going to|what's going to} happen once this? they're going to get accustomed it and that they will begin relying a lot of on America instead of feign one thing by themselves. If they need got the art then tell them to try and do it and so pay. there's nothing like poerty during this world, there's solely your own mistake if you're unfortunate.

There's no something wrong if you give them a little food instead of money and help poor people to have work. Most poor people did not have a regular job because they are uneducated or diligence people are always relying on governments supply budget. So, instead give them a work or a decent job to have a maintain income for their family.
I like the culture of pure Chinese they are helping each other no one greedy and selfish.
I think we will not be able to eliminate a poverty that is a permanent problem that exists in every country and it will not be possible
to lose, for whatever effort you make by giving them a job, if they remain lazy they will still be poor

rich people can really help the poor but it depends on them, they are not obliged though, giving money or assistance to poor once or twice is noble but to distribute the wealth of the rich people to some unfortunate individuals, it is not fair, it doesn't help the poor to survive but it encourages them to stay on begging and waiting for someone to lend them a hand. though there are some wealthy people who offers livelihood projects for the poor, but let us face it, some poor people are really stubborn and lazy and have no plans on working for themselves. sad thing is, it has become part of the cycle.

Poverty is the state of being poor. It cannot be diminished anytime. Even there are full employment to the world, it is not assurance that people would not suffer from financial shortage. World has scarce resources and definitely, it cannot supply those people who are extremely needed the commodities. World is only for rich people specially that there are capitalists who want to make more money.

I got your point but majority of those "whales" don't have the same thinking due to various reasons.

"If only" "If only" "If only" ; that wa the question. And we can't just push those whales to have the same thinking or goal to reduced poverty.

While getting assistance from the government, poor people must also do something to rotate the wheels of their life. Instead of waiting for the hard reality that billionaires will assist poor people, make some adjustment and challenge the world in order to step up.

For this to be effective, it needs a serious global awareness and involvement of big persons or country.

I have had this thought severally and I hope the part of proper/adequate wealth circulation is being taken into full consideration and enactment. It is really pathetic to see money/finance being squandered by governments in the developing countries while their citizens are in a state of abject poverty.

You think being wealthy is luck, lmfao..

I'm not even that wealthy and it's just luck that I have made all of my income from, it's just luck that I choose to spend my money on things that hold value, it's just luck that I haven't pissed my money away paying interest on loans and buying things to throw away..

I believe in equality of opportunity, not equality of outcome..

I totally agree with that. People like OP think that wealth is like a cake, so if someone is wealthy, i.e. has a bigger piece of the cake, the rest are poorer. But wealth is like a fruit tree, that can grow and give more fruit, so if someone is richer, i.e. has more fruit, the rest can have more fruit as well. And when someone eats a fruit and throws the seed, a new fruit tree can grow, and so on.

Right, these ideals are why England dominated early in the industrial revolution, around the time of the first steam engines..

Until then wealth was land, and land IS like a cake..
England was intelligent to recognize that other people getting rich through industry and manufacturing was not taking wealth away from them but rather creating more wealth for everyone..

You can thank coal for all of it Smiley

These threads point out why it's so difficult to act, not only from the side of the governments, but also from the side of finding a way to eradicate poverty in a manner we all are happy with.

Governments aren't just one body. It may look like so, but there are so many different streams of influences and opinions, that it's next to impossible to expect them to jump in and offer a helping hand.

In other words, it's up to you to make the best out of every situation, because only you knows what's the best for yourself, not a bunch of politicians in suits only out to score cheap points.

Even if the environment around you doesn't offer many opportunities to improve your situation, doing something in an attempt to change your life is better than doing nothing and thus not change anything at all.

I don't see anything wrong in giving arms to the poor or the less privileged in the society. Even the holy books also support arms giving. I quite agree that some people who are poor are in that predicament as a result of their negligence. But there are also several other people who may even be far hard working and yet they get nothing. Those who have so much and yet not willing to help the poor in my opinion are just being greedy and selfish. When you die, what becomes of your wealth??? It is best to live a good and generous life instead of living a stingy and selfish life.
Practice arms giving or upliftment of the poor around you. I think you should even be embarrassed when you built your mansion in a community where the other people cannot even have a single room to sleep. I am not saying you should accommodate them in your home, or build a house for all the persons in your community, but you can at least do something to better their situation as long as you still have so much to spare that is idling away.

Try to leave a legacy behind and be remembered for good.
Poverty eradication is what the United Nations is also fighting and it should be the goal of everyone.

Theres a sayaing that " if you born poor, its not your fault but if you died poor its your fault".  Your lucky if you were born rich but how about those people that still in the poor section. Yes its hard to find a job better job if you dont have but you need to put an effort to become successful, dont waste time. You can change your life by taking action in a little way, if your rich and can afford to help other go for it.

I don't really like to help other people materially such as giving cash, because it doesn't educate me. I think I prefer to help indirectly such as giving jobs or other things that are more educating. Undecided

Each wealthy must have a through process to get a wealth they have, not so simple the people think. Even more they need a relative long time to get it. Surely, for those who has got wealth this is a reward for them for the hard work he has done. The mindset of the rich person or we can say they as a successful person certainly have a clear purpose in their lives. The mindset of them isn't limited just on this day, but they were thought the other day to keep arround in adequacy in economic terms. The most important is just one, they can manage money that they have in order to effloresce or even grow someday.

For instance, they save a money or jump down to the field of investment. All we know, no matter how much we have money now but we just save our money in my pocket it will useless, remember with the matter of inflation that each years we will face. Unless with someone who has a less economic thing, and I just thing, they couldn't manage the money they have and they tend to eliminate what they have and even just keep it in their wallet. They don't think what will happen afterwards, all they think is that the money they have will be enough to live in the future, and of course this will be very dangerous.

To eradicate poverty it will happened if the main actors can change their own mindset.

Its not your fault born being poor.. Its your fault dying poor.. You cant feed a poor forever let them strive too and let them stand on their feet helping them in other means like providing job instead of spoon feeding them.

The assets we have or what we get are not entirely ours, because there is a part of our property to be donated to the poor or people who are not capable or people who are in need. I always apply this if I get income and I don't care how much income I get, as long as we are able to share happiness in the form of material why we don't share it. Get used to a simple and full life of gratitude for what we have gained, so we will easily share a little of our wealth for people in need.
