Personally i think the best way to close the poverty gap is for companies to invest industries in 3rd world countries. But the problem is that tax is unbelievable high in those countries thus companies don't have an incentive to invest there. Also the countries should start to become self sufficient so they rely less on hand out. Any aid give to 3rd world countries should be given organisation that work directly in the country not the goverment.

Find a penny and pick it up. All the day you will have good luck.\n\nTradition, and probably the poorest people needed the most luck.

Many poor countries are "developing countries," or "Third World," because they have low "human development." (1).  If "developing countries," can improve their standard of living by increasing life expectancy and literacy, decreasing population growth, and building infastructure, including schools, hospitals, roads, etc., then they could become richer.  (2).  \n\nThe "human development index" or (HDI) measures where countries are in development, and those countries that are low are "poor," and could become richer by improving their "human development," which includes: life expectancy, literacy, education, and standards of living.  (3) \n\nWhen countries can increase savings, increase reliance on the "rule of law," decrease corruption, decrease debt, increase investment in the country by large companies, and increase profits from world trade, then they could become richer!  (2).  \n\nGood luck!

Maybe it is, but third world countries are primitive and backward compared to 1st and 2nd world countries.  They do things like wash their clothes by hand, have dirt floors in their homes, don't have electricity.

That is simple the more people working. The more people making a living and as they gain seniority at work they make more money. Thus they escape poverty.

In the third world capitalism's benefits go to the rich.  There is no middle class, or at least it's very small.  There are the rich and the poor and there are way more poor than rich.  Politicians know what side of the toast the butter is on.  Poor people vote too.

Home safety improvements can start with alarm systems, add a good dog, then get and learn to use a firearm. (Note: Firearms are not for everyone.  If you have kids, think long and hard about a firearm.)\n\nMy opinion on poverty is (1) bad or corrupt government (2) poor education due to bad system (back to government) or lack of funds (3) lack of opportunities (government again)\n(4) lack of motivation are the cause of poverty.\n\nThe solution is replace "bad and lack" with "good and plenty".

You have to be careful not to help create an atmosphere of dependence.Remember the welfare system? Now it is welfare to work and has limits and better monitoring.What you give is a choice not a requirement. Be thankful and give whatever you can.Rich or not,$300,000 is a chunk of change especially in an impoverished country. Peace.

Begin with the social structure of India: it has a caste system and mention religion, and then look at the history of poverty in India. move onto Mother Teresa's work in Calcutta, then look at modern poverty and what international help is on offer. Finish with a look at how poverty might be affected in the future: imagine if Bob Geldof manages to "Make Poverty History", what might happen to India without the caste system it has relied upon for so long. \n\nBelow are heaps of links to get you started.\nGood luck!

Haven't you realized there is nothing in this world for free!  You need to start saving 10% of your monthly income.  It may not get you out of poverty but it can help you keep your head above water.  STOP!!!!   Worthless buying and make sure you are solely concerned about necessities right now.  You can worry about luxuries when you get your feet on the ground.  I have been struggling with the same situation and I am taking it slow and steady that is what will get you through.  Keep your head up and good Luck!!!

To my opinion, I don't think poverty will ever become history. No matter how good the economy is, there will always be people going through wealth and poverty. There are tons of people in this world and there are always not enough food to feed people. The world can't benefit everyone, anytime.

I don't know what thest way out of poverty is, but if you want to know what the BEST way out of poverty is that would be getting an education, speaking english, and getting a job.

Lack of a middle class is what defines a third world nation as a third world nation.  The US however is too volitile to accept that for long so what it'd really mean was war. What the sides would be who knows at this point but there would deffinitely be a lot of blood spilled. \n\nI agree that the middle class is fast disapeering. Most "wealthy" people think of themselves as middle class. That is many of the top %10 in income think they are middle class and live middle class life styles.

Wow, this is such a great question! Really.  For me, the way to reduce poverty in the US (and anywhere in the world) is to GET PEOPLE EDUCATED.  Poverty is such a complex issue and it is a difficult challenge to address, but if you get people educated, the quality of lives around the world will change.  I mean, by getting people educated, you help them get to schools, get good jobs, take better care of themselves, prevent disease, etc.  It's so cool, really.\n\nThere are statistics that support how education can help reduce poverty.  I think some of them can be found on www.campaignforeducationusa.org --  Maybe when writing your paper, you can present the case for education being a good way to fight poverty, and then support that by showing all the ways that educating someone can actually help him/her improve the quality of his/her life.  Good luck.

Unhappily, most "developing nations" are corrupt.  Billions have been spent on them, only to have the bucks stolen and/or misdirected and/or misspent.  Further, a bunch of them have an environment rife with disease and degradation.  It is a very formidable enterprise to "help develop" such places.\n\nSo I would say that what would be most effective is to promote self development strategies, which would mean self-cleansing of corruption, to start.  Once that has been well enough tackled, then these nations should prioritize their development with the view that the people need to work, and to work, they need decent food, clothing, health care, and education.
