There are millions of people living in poverty. Think about the negative images you have about poor people. Now consider that most people are not poor by choice. They haven't done anything to deserve their poverty. They are human beings just like you. They are trapped within a system that keeps rewarding the wealthy because the wealthy control the system. Poverty does not have to exist. People telling you that just want to keep their own prosperity. There is enough of the pie for everyone to have a slice.
