In my country i observed so many people doing rally and blame the government why the basic needs price rise and the salary is still very low and not enough for daily expenses, is this the effect of the Ukraine and russia war that makes the gas or crude oil so high at price and they pass the gas expenses to the product and it ends to very high price of the basic needs that make us very poor, I see government has a move to resolve the problem but many people are still blaming the government.

Both the government and the society have to play their part for the betterment of their country. If the government is facilitating the people and the society is not responding to the government's efforts, there will be no improvement in the living standards. At the moment, inflation is a global phenomenon, and healthy inflation is always necessary for economic growth. Inflation is mostly affecting the countries where per capita income is on the lower side.

In some countries, governments are mismanaging the resources. In third-world countries, corruption and kickbacks are the major concerns. But, citizens have to play their part in these conditions. Traders and distributors should make reasonable profits in these times to make commodities somewhat affordable. People should fight corruption at the individual level and then transform society. At the government level, continuation of the policies should be a must.

Good take on this one. It is undoubtedly true that both parties have the responsibility and should make an action if we really want to overcome poverty. While the government needs to facilitate policies and serve the people of the country, individuals also have the responsibility to respond to the efforts and actions of their government, both locally and internationally. Although it is true that corruption and kickbacks are two of the biggest factors that is involved in the rise of poverty in a lot of developing countries, the general public have the responsibility to fight against it. The government and the people should really keep each other responsible of their actions and decisions that drives poverty.
