the solution to poverty

Being poor is generally associated with a particular economic state. Of cause we can define it to include other aspects such as metal, emotional, relational and other abstract values. For this particular statement however let set the boundary as regards to being poor financially.

So what is the solution to this age old question? How did peasants in the feudal eras overcome their lords, how did workers unionised to demand rights from capitalist, how did slaves walk out freed men? 

I thought over it, while picking cumcumbers... And I've come up with a theoretical soultion

For there to be no poor, there has to be no rich. 

Now i know that sounds crazy. But listen before you label me a socialistic communist..

There will be no poor when people stop exploiting other people. When humans cease to see each other as mear objects. When humanity can realise we're all in this together.

As one part of the body cares for another, so too should those privileged ones care for the less fortunate. 

To embodie this theory. One has to be able to come to apoint where he will never make a claim that he is rich. Or well, never self proclaim it. If he has the ability to be rich, and there are still the poor amongst him, then he isn't truly rich.. yet. He is only considered rich if he's been able to eradicate poverty. In other words there are no more poor people.

However this might be impossible, because human nature by default is lazy and we tend to the path of least resistance. Someone whom is just begging and waiting for handouts without lifting a finger surely doesnt deserve help does he?

Or does he nevertheless? 

The undeserving, 
The unlovable, 
The hated
The ridiculed
The scorned and shamed... 

Ah... Surely they dont deserve unmerited favours. 

The solution to poverty is there must be no richness. 

One man gets richer at the expense of another. Thats just the natural law of nature. A plant that extends more roots can get water supplies and essential nutritions better than another plant whom cant compete. Completion for sunlight, minerals and space makes nature progress in a.... sustainable manner. 

Old plants will never live forever, nor seeds remain in the ground. Young plants will not be shaded forever, and with the full sunlight after a treefall, they have the time and potential to mature to their best. Growing high and proving shade for the next generation, continuing the cycle. 

Its all a cycle. 

The rich, the poor 
The lazy the hardworking
The exploited the opportunist 

There will be no more poor when the rich willingly give up their riches

Yes so that sounds impossible. No human in the right frame of mind will give up their hard earn savings to some random beggar on the street that didn't work hard for it. 

No God would give up his life, his throne in heaven for a mankind so full of hate towards him. 

But anyways.. 

Nature.. 

If they don't, nature will just happen. 
People will die. It cant be taken along. Money will be passed on. It'll be squandered by the next generation. And... 

The poor will be the one whom was once rich. And the currently poor will find riches.

Or will they? 

The solution to poverty. 
There must be no hypercapitalism, 
No advertising or marketing. 
No broadcasting, social media or expositions... 

Will that make it go away? 
Maybe not.. Thats just living in denial, ignorance. 

The solution to poverty is when there is no money... That can be concentrated.. 

Hmm block chain? Crypto currency might just overthrow the current economic market.. Maybe leaving old traditional cash obsolete and invalid.. Then what? What about this new world order.. 

Are you ready or prepared for it? 

The answer to the big question.. 

The poor you will always have among you, 
It is what you choose to do when interacting with them that will determine the outcome of the chain of events about to occur in time. 

Till next time, 
Thanks for wsnting to be better today than you were yesterday.
