  1. You can't.. it's a balance of life.. It;s like being up without coming down.

    Likewise Poverty is dynamic and has always it's face as times pass by.

    What we are today may not be defined as poverty before. For instance, the classic concept of poverty is not being able to eat 3 square meals a day.. But that's not really true at present, is it?..


  2. perhaps we cant stop it completely but there would be much less if everybody gave just a small part of themselves to those less fortunate and stopped blaming those who are in the situation such as those who are unable to work because they are a single parent those who have genuine ill health and are unable to work full time. The government has a responsibility to make sure that people are better off not worse off by getting a job, they also should make sure that pensioners have enough money to eat and have heating on. we also need to address isolation as that can lead to poverty as well as ill health. So the cycle start all over

  3. its not jus th ework of the authorities bt its the work of every human beings.bt its a must for the authorities to work succesfully on itthey must firstmake a group of people whose work should jus be of surveying those who rpoor n then train or suggest them how can they prosper or if in someways they can help them by money ways than its wonderful bt not for ever just 1ce or twicethan they should just guide him n aso they should ask for his oppinions also.thanks

  4. its not possible to eradicate it completely..

    but surely if each of us try to make a little difference to atleast one underprevileged child..the world wud surely be better!!

    not by feeding them which v cant do everyday obviously, but giving them EDUCATION!! tat v can surely do..as the saying goes..

    "give a man a fish and u feed him one day..teach him to fish and u feed him everyday"!!

    all of us can make tat difference:)

    good luck:)

  5. the same way it starts...  

  6. we can fight poverty by going out to work,somewhere ,somehow no use sitting at home and crying out we are poor!

  7. Education and to be more precise the right education, character, value and skill building and not be and become sophisticated scoundrels.

  8. Economic realities prevent the complete eradication of poverty without trampling on individual freedom in the process.  Past attempts at creating a collectivist "utopia" have only ended in utter failure.  However, this should never be used as a convenient excuse to not at least help alleviate poverty to the point where it does not become a heavy burden upon the rest of society.  (Sure, we accept the fact that all organisms will eventually die, but it does not keep us from "cheating death," even in the latter years of our lives.  It is simply human nature to continue to survive.)  

    In the developing world, the roots of poverty are quite clear:  lack of educational & employment opportunities, oppressive & corrupt governments, a shortage of natural resources and access to vital markets, etc.  The solutions are also clear:  investment into education & occupational training to better prepare those in the developing world bring themselves out of abject poverty.  Also, building the infrastructure necessary to fostering economic growth and, by extension, social stability.  However, simply throwing money at the problem does not ensure progress.  These humanitarian "quick fixes" are only helpful during times of immediate crisis (such as natural disasters or warfare);  there must be long-term solutions to long-term problems.  

    In the industrialized world ("lands of plenty"), there is a phenomenon known as "generational" poverty, where the root cause for poverty is more psychological than environmental.  In most countries (mainly Western Europe and North America), there are social programs, originally intended as a supplement to struggling families just getting by with meager pay, that are now seen as replacements to earning a living by a swath of mostly uneducated people.   Plus, certain cultural norms even discourage individual ambition and accumulating economic wealth.  This mindset then gets passed down to their children, who then lack any motivation to improve upon their quality of life.  Thus, some amount of outside intervention may be necessary to urge these people to become more self-sufficient and not spend their entire lives relying upon charity or government assistance to sustain their livelihoods.

  9. I tried but failed. So it's impossible in India.
