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.
Right mate providing a living to those less fortunate people is a lot of help to each and everyone.Giving them a source of living is a gift of life meaning they can earn their own money through their works and provide important needs in their family like foods,shelter etc.but most especially education because being educated is the steppingstone in erradicating poverty in our lives.

Look at Jeff Bezos, his net worth is over 100 billion dollars but he refuses to pay his Amazon employees a livable wage and he forces them to work in dangerous conditions.  The workers are overworked and are forced to pee in bottles.

The sad truth is that government is interested in eradication of poverty. They show poverty as result or a destination for the nation to keep them motivated to work harder.

Are they really? Well, maybe for some and not all government. For most of the developed world, they have been able to cater for a lot of things and has been able to put some system in place for everyone to at least be able to live a day without having to go hungry or where to lay their heads. Now, that is a working government who is trying to eradicate poverty, but that does not mean you still wont have some lazy fellows who are just fond of begging all their lives.

However, talking about countries where all these things are not available, no job, no amenties, no infrastructure and the only thing would be some politicians siphoning the funds meant for these things, in such places, this would be a hard thing to tackle unless, that level of corruption is tackled first and this speaks mostly for the third world and some developing countries.

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.
What OP certainly is not understanding is that no matter how hard you try to want to help some, it is like that state of poverty is just something they have decided to choose.

I have seen beggars before with two hands and two feet, in a situation where they can find some skills and do well for themselves, but they just would not. People, who make a good life for themselves, really do not have two heads, and no matter how much you give a beggar today, that does not make the beggar to stop begging again tomorrow. So at the end, nothing is changing.

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
Eradication of poverty is important issue in the world and countries are trying to take measures against it but it is still existing even in this modern world you will see a lot of poverty in people. But those who are living in poverty can find a way out by getting education of modern ways to make money then they can change their lives by investing and trading which will make then able to deal with anything and pass the knowledge to next.

Too true! Many impoverish people in the community are actually the most hard working people in that communit. All they lack is the opportunity to earn more that what they have. Maybe it is because of lack of education or seed money but the fact of the matter is they don't need hand outs, they need opportunities.

Poverty can be erradicated by us by the contributions of each individual. By being diligent and industrious to find a decent job, business or anything legit that can supply individual or family needs.
- Accurately, poverty can be eradicated as long as everyone has a stable job and diligence in every action but you should know that is just a dream, that theory can not apply to a real life because the personality and effort of each person is not the same. In addition, we should talk about the level of knowledge, finance and talent of each region in the world, it always has a big difference, and so we can clearly see that we really want, it is still impossible, poverty will still exist to create a balance for this life, not all can be rich and not all can be poor

There are a lot of wrong statements in your post..
Yes, I agree with you on the so many inherent fallacies in the OP's submission. Another case in point is the title. It's actually wrong to ever think a thing as Poverty can be eradicated. That's not true. Poverty can only be Alleviated, not eradicated.

That suppose to be awesome to hear but it isn't in that easy as saying. Giving money directly to the lower class of people is not a good and effective way, it  helps them just in short time. It will not change their mind set and attitude as long as they wan't doing nothing. It is better to treat them how to make a money than directly giving.

How do we keep the value of the bitcoin at the time of holding it? It's hard to find a solution for those who hold the cryptocurrency market. It only depends on the humanitarian value of each investor.

I think the problem here is in each individuals, most of the people who are in the lower class of living always blaming the government because of their poverty.  Even though government create a lot of livelihood program that can help people to earn money, if an individual are not willing or coopirating nothing will change. Dont also think that because of luck people get wealth or rich, its because of their hardwork and dedication nothing more nothing less.

It is a good idea but there are many poor people who do not know how to make money. Besides, they are very lazy and can not do the job well. That is why they are always poor. I have given the opportunity to some poor people but they can not fully utilize it.

Just whay like Bible says “don’t give them fish instead teach them how to fish”simple message that can save the economy of every country and to eradicate the poverty

But ofcourse this is an easy word to say,npbut harder to do why not stop talking and just do what you can afford to help the less fortunate from here you can educate people so they can do the same way

I will support empowerment of the poor people by the wealthy  this is a way out of reducing poverty its better to teach them how fish rather than giving out fish if the wealthy will have this mindset it will go a long way in reducing poverty of course not everybody might afford to pay tuition fee so as to be well educated and in some countries this menace is brought by government lack of commitment towards infrastructures. eg provision of free and affordable educational system.

yes you are right I also think like you, actually poverty can be overcome if there is a will and there is an effort to be successful, if there is no security then it will be very difficult to be able to do that.
Poverty can be totally reduced if not eradicate if only people will be more open to look for job opportunities to sustain their family needs,and not just focusing on theirselves.If they have the will to survive in this crucial world,then they should find ways how to find a means for their living.
Yes they should find more ways because there are many opportunity that has been waiting for us and we only need to do is to make a move on which we should be educate first ourselves so that we can be encourage to do our best in the specific task or job and the outcome will become good not just for ourselves but also for everyone that can help them to improve their status in life.

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 agree with this. As long as you work hard for the things that you want, you can achieve it. You must have the proper idea on where to use your money because it might help you to become rich.

It depends on where you live, there are countries that charge you 50% or even more in taxes with the purpose of redistributing that wealth, so if people in those countries do not feel like giving even more of their money to those that have not earn it I cannot blame them, what you say will work if the government did not charge taxes or if the tax was very low.

But if you are already paying so much in taxes in which you are effectively giving half of your time and life to the government so they can solve those problems, and they do not do it then it's entirely their responsibility and you should not feel responsible to try to do even more, if you want to do it you are welcome to do it but there should not be any moral obligation.
i think to be more calm with yourself, that is by following the rules in which we live. i think we should keep positive and optimistic thoughts away that taxes we have paid can be used for mutual prosperity
