My opinion is that everything is the way it is because someone wants it that way.. It'd be easy to wipe out poverty but instead we spend the money on killing each other. It doesn't need to be another tax. We're taxed to freaking death already. I would never vote for another tax.
Someone? The Greater Man? The Illuminate? In the USA, all is the way it is, because we all want it that way. When WE ALL, (50% Federated Vote) want something, someone doesn't give it to us, we TAKE it.

We have to kill to be free. We kill them, so they don't kill us. But, the more they kill us the more stern we get and vice versa.
In the case of Poverty, there is no solution. Poverty is a condition of Nature. It is the vacuum of life that nature slams against the meager, sub-standard, in-attentive and un-prepared.
For Plants, of course, there is nothing they can do. The soil is what it is. But, us Predators can get off our asses and Predate, Get Some!!! By, that act, we have competition. Not every hunt is successful. Some will do better than others. But, we share in the Tribe. Therefore, we have tribes of Predators against each other. In monkeys it is lots of screaming and a little blood.
For humans it is lots of blood and screaming, vaporized Cities, etc. In this world, the shinny monkeys are in Constant War. It seems to be their true nature. A lot of the Shinny don't like to see it like that. They hold to foolish hope, perhaps. But, the evidence is overwhelming. Violence is us.
And the outcome of constant war, is Hunger, for most, and Riches for some. Is it Right? An explanation doesn't make it right. It cannot be Wrong, however. There is simply no right and wrong in nature. The Shinny made up Right and Wrong to have War.
