Not everyone has the ability to consistently earn a living for self / self and family.
This ability requires many skills.
What are those skills?
In our modern world, many things influence our ability to survive.
Is it becoming harder and harder to survive or easier and easier?
In what ways?
and for whom?
Earning an income involves a willingness to work and the ability to recognize that the employer, not the employee, defines the hours and work.
Survival, on the other hand, may require nothing more than filling out forms at the local welfare office.
Poverty is is only because human/woman are destined to live money dependent during this civilization. Parental, religious and/or school conditions human into believing there are inferior and superior people, money is the only cause of classes that poverty is the lowest of.
By money's standard I'm impoverished since I live on less that 1K$ per month in DC but because my desire is to live environmentally I'm able to assist people who aren't without expecting to get the aid back, although there are times I have. If everyone chose to live environmentally there would only be the family of man since human/swoman are not able to survive environmentally, that is why the metamorphosis Jesus called "Born Again" has to take place for 10% of the population before the world ends in about one decade per the Bible's prophecies.
Intelligence + Work ethics + cup of Coffee =
Immeasurable personal , private and economic success !
I so often these days think back to the fifties and sixties as a child of poverty . Most people today , those whining about "poverty" would never have made it back then . There are so many security blankets built into our society today , food stamps , free Wic , much easier attainable unemployment / disability benefits , church contributions , food kitchens , reduced /controlled housing costs .
It isn't so much about what I need today but what can I get for free !
If children are being indoctrinated by the all pervasive ideals of the LEFT, what are we gonna do????
Kathryn , Indoctrination works only for a set time period and yet independent thought is inevitable in ALL adults , at least for most . Our young will learn of the truth eventually . For us , our elders all knew this and just sat back silently and knew it would come to us and it has, hasn't it !
yes, they are called the silent generation. Meanwhile we are yelling and screaming at each other. The proof will be in the pudding.
Some will have egg on their faces.

I have often wondered about this. I personally have no education beyond that of High School. I do not hold any special qualifications and think of myself as being average in intelligence. I do read a lot and pay attention to as much as I can as a habit. If there is text I read it, even a cheesy ad...

When you are communicating with others, how much is it going to matter how "smart" they are? assuming, of course, that you are all discussing a topic that interests you!

How much of an effect does poverty has on education and the system? I would like to say that there is a direct correlation to a poverty mindset and a child's inability to be an effective student. However, there are many stories of those that overcome and go against the grain.
