The World We Live In

Where we are born and who we are born to determines our successfulness in the world more than we know it. Whether or not we are born into a developed country (First World) or a undeveloped country (Third World)? Who your parents are also determines your chance at success in the world. In a recent book I was reading for Compassionate Ministries class, it mentioned how advancements haven't been made because the poor have not been given the chance. Poor(er) people face more limitations that the rich. They face limitations, often a lack of education, a struggle to survive.
People don't give homeless people or poor people a chance or the credit they deserve. The most overused theory is that homeless people and poor people are that way due to their personal choices. People make bad choices and that is why they are at the bottom of the social scale. This could be true to a point, some people are poor due to bad choices. However, are the bad choices made due to the lack of proper education due to the parents choices.
People recently seem to have noticed the poor and are really trying to do things. There are programs now where people in First World countries or any country can give to entrepreneurs to help them make a living. This is a great thing where people are globally helping others. The future will be exciting to see how we can become globally connected and working towards true equality.
