Inequality and Poverty are no Accident: They are Man-made

What Causes Inequality and Poverty?

Almost every day there is a news story that tells us that economic inequality has reached an all time high. The wealth gap is becoming a chasm. How did we get here? What is it that has made our world so unequal?

We would like to look at how this came to be.

The reality is that inequality is manufactured. The system is rigged deeply in the favour of those who have the money. These are big corporations and banks who’ve used their wealth to influence our politics, society and the economy to help them hoard more money.

It’s not just economic inequality. Pick-up any social issue, and at the root of it you will find the same systemic flaw. Those making the rules are making them for their own benefit. To bring about positive change in our world we first need to change the rules that govern it.

As the 1% make the rules, and bail themselves out when things go wrong, the rest of us are told to keep ‘working hard’ to get there. Poverty or inequality cannot be ‘cured’ or eradicated like our governments want us to believe. It is not a disease, it is a creation of governments and corporations.

As long as the ultra rich keeps giving everyone else just one slice of the pie , people will continue to mentally degrade and commit horrific acts.

It will not stop until the ever increasing wealth inequality stops.

The worst is yet to come.

For example, in the year 2050 the third most populated country in the world in an area no bigger than Texas will be Nigeria, with an average age of 20, living in extreme poverty.

The worst is yet to come.
