8. But why isn’t poverty not solved ?
• The video here talks a very controversial topic about why we don’t
solve poverty although we know how to do it ,it is common
concept by man that that these people need more money from
other to be able to survive and in the videos ,it talks about how by
having people just shares their incomes and we would have no
such thing as poverty around but with this communism would be
created and democracy and equality would be taken away as the
cost for no poverty ,is that really worth it ?
