Image result for perceptions of poverty cartoonsWeek 6


I included this image: because it shows the prime example of how poverty is displayed in society.
Both candidates discussed the topic of poverty. They both agreed on poverty and low-income families. They spoke on solutions to help these groups of people, because they need to be helped. They gave examples on how to move towards upward mobility. They gave examples of more opportunities like better jobs and more incentives for individuals.
In my personal opinion: I feel like politicians wouldn't now how it feels to be in poverty. This economy we tend to glamorize rich people. The low income families- are left out to dust and to be forgotten about. Unless people have been in this situation- how would they know? Poverty is a serious problem happening in the world everyday. We can keep listing solutions- but will it really help? We need to take action- and stop talking about solutions.
