What is the best way to eliminate poverty?

Leonor, es cierto, si uno trabaja lo suficientemente duro en línea que pueden hacer un buen dinero. Gracias.

La mejor forma de eliminar la pobreza es siendo solidarios y ayudar a nuestros familiares y amigos a trabajar por Internet.

Except you have the biggest, brightest, bestest smile on all of APSense!!!

Wow Sondra, that is great of you to do! You are making a big difference...keep up the good work, please!

My skills aren't that amazing I've just been doing it so long that I don't have fear nor am I embarrassed easily. Everything I do is simple which no one really listens to me on how I do them but many listens when I apply the techniques on them. Funny.

I have been working on somethings but I found a ton of fraud or red tape in processes I've been into. You're idea is great but does have som

Mike, maybe with your amazing marketing skills you can pool together some resources and start a foundation that would support micro loans to tiny enterprises around the world. Just a thought...change the world a little at a time.

I've also bought rehab houses in my community and flipped them to contractors. It was cool when a neighbor came and saw me overseeing a contractor working on an abandoned house. He said that was great, no one had done anything with it and it had been an eyesore on the

Sondra, great idea...I never thought of that. I have been thinking about the best way to get something done that would actually work and you come up with this. I have tried a few things but they have all fallen short this though might just be the missing key.

I agree, Joe, poverty is a mind set, often people don't believe they can do better and some don't believe they deserve better. One of my favorite strategies for global economic independence is micro business loans. A small amount of money that may be blown on fancy iced coffee in a month can support a small start up enterprise somewhere in the world...including the US.

Poverty is for most in the US a mind set and inmho a mindset supported by a system that says "No problem"... Poverty in many countries I have been to is based in the fact that the education system is NOT geared to actually teach people anything, it's just a process to get rid of the children between the ages of 5 and 17 and then hoping they will somehow 'make it', with many still unable to even read, write or do arithmetic... a sad state of affairs, indeed.

David, I love the last part if we can put a system in place where someone can be weened off it should work better.

1. Lower business and income taxes.

2. Lower (or remove entirely) minimum wage.

3. Remove the maximum earnings for welfare recipients.

1 and 2 are meant to destroy business and crush the middle class.
2 and 3 are meant to crush the middle class and keep the poor poor.

In addition to the three steps above, putting in place a welfare system that allows recipients to get a good-paying job and that gradually lowers the monthly welfare stipend over time would reduce and eventually eliminate po

Cerberus, thanks for the share.

BEST way? ONE of the best ways is what we, the "APSense InterNETwork" Team (see in my "Resources") members have chosen - we do change lives Worldwide.

Philippe, I've never known any child refuse to eat, want a home or to be happy...the child who starves on our watch is written.

I know what you are saying and agree to some degree but I believe the cure for cancer could have been discovered with those we stepped over with excuses.

Poor is not that bad as I've been on both sides. I see people for who they really are in a poor setting but fake is the norm on the richer side.

I learned the meaning of real love being poor. I learned how to make

work hard in your niche business

Hi Philippe. You are still at it! Good on you. I was in the neighbourhood and dropped in to check out what is happening. Take Care

Mike, I don't think we accept poverty, I think most of us don't, but it's just there are a lot of factors that contribute to having poor people all around the world. The main factor, imho, is our brain. There's a book the title I like: "What makes your brain happy and why you should do the opposite."

Another thing I saw recently, and it's another unfortunate factor, it's that 6 people out of 7 who learn they have cancer and need to change one or more habits, like smoking or eating better, simpl

Emma, I almost forgot about you where you been? I agree totally but I would be lying if I said I wasn't guilty of this too...I will work on it.

The ONLY way to eliminate poverty is to excise greed from human nature. There is plenty to go around if it were possible for people to stop thinking they need more. Unfortunately, of course, it'll never happen.

Philippe, I could be wrong (probably) but I look at poverty different from being poor. Don't shoot me on this but I grew up poor but was happy...to me poverty is an attentional act of man to deprive others for their own gain.

What is unacceptable to me is that everyone in the world can't eat, have decent water and a basic shelter. I wonder if Jesus walked the earth today would he fight for the impoverished and against us who accepts it.

I remember, many years ( decades ? ) ago, an economist says we need a certain percentage of unemployed people, else the stores would be empty during day time. The economy needs some unemployment, around 6 or 7% I think
