World crisis, poverty and inequality

imageexpanded|raUID=517876176229835334|size=width300|

The world is in a state of crisis as poverty dominates societies around the world. Inequality is almost seen as 'normal' as all societies are inequal. People have accepted the inequality which exists not by choice but becase, they have no power of changing the status quo.

The rule of society is: the rich get riched by exploiting the poor while the poor get poorer as the gap between the rich and poor continues to increase. By poor being people cannot make things happen for themselves and their families and this creates a society where poverty is perpetuated over and over again.

People are being dehumanised by poverty and tend to take part ion crime, prostitution and other illegal activities as a way of not only dealing with the hardships of life by as a way of making sense of a wolrd which favours the few (rich) over the many (poor). The will to be something is taken away from poor people and this violates the many rights people have.

It is the action of people as a collective (poor and rich), that will address this injustice.
