Poverty is a legal citizen or resident of the human universe and poverty is no respecter of persons, races, religious faiths or nationalities. Poverty practically depicts a very serious or an extreme physical and material lack that prevents any individual from meeting his or her basic daily needs in life, such as, a decent housing, nutritional meals, emergency funds, access to quality health care, decent or presentable clothings and the proper means of transportation from place to place. Poverty thrives in all the nations of the world today in varying degrees and without any exemption. Is Satan or demon directly and primarily responsible for poverty or not? Is poverty truly man-made in nature or not? What truly is responsible for poverty in this life? What is the true realistic answer or the practical solution for solving the problem of human poverty?
Poverty is totally man-made in all ramifications just like the human slavery. Poverty is as a result of the prevailing economic policies in place in a particular country, the types of market forces that control the exchange of goods and services, the poverty wages that many earn, the wealth gaps or extreme income inequalities that are intentionally created in a nation, lack of economic opportunities in a country, the unabated inflation rate that raises the cost of living or lowers the standards of living and the exorbitant prices of the basic goods and services that are beyond the purchasing powers of many.
Poverty also exists because of the high unemployment rate that affects many that are job seekers, the personal decision of an individual to be lazy or idle in life without any personal plan in place to work and earn money, the financial recklessness in the life of a person and the mismanagement of one's income or money, a personal decision of a person to live above his or her means, bankruptcy and the weak or the worthless local currencies that reduce the purchasing powers of many.
