I don't believe that poverty is what leads to poverty.there are things that causes bad economy and one is government policies and regulations, when certain government policies does not favor the masses it leads to bad economy whereby the country's citizens will begin to complain and shouting, struggling for survival.Government on sit does not make policies that affects them, instead it affects the people. If the economy is good both the rich and the poor will survive, there are some countries that even beggers see food to eat , that is how the government made the economy to be, no one begs for food to eat , they value the lives of citizens and make sure everyone is treated fairly. So therefore it government that causes bad economy and not the poor ones.
