I believe that question: Are the poor responsible for their own poverty? Can easily be debatable, first you must define who/what is considered poor. This definition alone varies amongst individuals and their opinions as well as statistics with specified numbers. Here, for the sake of not doing outside research we will consider someone who is poor to live in unruly circumstances, possibly someone without a job, someone who works very little, or although they work minimum wage just isn’t enough.
