Poverty

Poverty is a standard of living which falls below your ability to pay your bills. It occurs on a global scale and poverty itself has within it levels through which a person can fall. At the very bottom of poverty at its base level you will find the homeless, the so called throwaway flotsam of society.

Once a person has fallen through to poverty's base level the chances of climbing back up through these levels are diminished dramatically.

It is not unknown however for individuals to rise from poverty to success, but such a rise demands some skill or talent and more than a modicum of luck.

Poverty awaits us all, and is an international outrage.

I too am homeless, relying solely on my employment to provide shelter, food and an income.
