Blog #8: Easing the Worlds Poorest People
Many of us in this world want to put an end to poverty, but the problem is that majority of us are not acting on that goal. There are many individuals in this world that have made a difference with the help of others, but getting an entire country to contribute to putting a stop to poverty is what would make an enormous difference in this world. The wealthiest people in this world living in places like Canada and America, are very materialistic for the most part and tend to focus on insignificant things such as technology and some extra shoes because that is how we have adapted in our society. If every person that was well off gave a buck or two a week (which most of us can find between couch cushions), it would go a long way in helping feed and clothe the poor and eradicating poverty world wide.

Great post Kenzie! I agree that it's the wealthy people of the world that hold responsibility in improving the lives of those less fortunate. If those who can do not help, then these people's lives will not improve. I also agree with your points about how its the wealth-obsessed nature of our society that's taking away from helping those less fortunate.
