Poverty is one of the global conflicts that every country faces wherein cooperation from both its citizens and the one governing is crucially demanded. But despite the efforts of most countries, poverty still knocks at the doorsteps of every family and conflicts between the government and the people are always being talked about. Is it the people who needs to change or the government needs to clean itself? Who should be the one to make an effort?

Poor and uneducated people are easy to control. Education is very expensive and not all people can afford it. People work in order to survive. Every day millions of people think how to feed the family and survive. People are unhappy. And instead of trying to change their lives for the better, people watch TV, believe the false news and politicians who are pummeling their brains. Poverty is very beneficial to the government.
That is why the answer to your question - only people can overcome poverty (material and spiritual).

You can't put it all the on the people. Of course, there are countries where the government gives the people so many opportunities, yet they still choose to be lazy and poor. Then I can see that, yes, that is the fault of the people. But, you have to realize that many countries have laws that are not in place to helps the poor people. They don't help create jobs or find jobs. They don't have reasonable minimum wages or good workplace safety laws. In these places, the fault is a lot more on the governments themselves.
