Session 6 UPDATE

It is clear that poverty is the end result of several factors.  Some of the factors appear accidental.  Others are apparently more deliberate.  This session lets us know that my original definition of poverty is appropriate.  It is installed by the leading class of people most responsible for the economy of the nation.  The people that determine the wages of the countries workers contribute to the stratification of the poverty matrix.  While some of the same elite make ignorant generalizations that the poor’s situations are caused by their inability to conform or unwillingness to achieve, that is generally debunked through research.  An overwhelming amount of people that fall below the absolute poverty line are from full-time working, single parent, female head of households.  These women struggle with childcare as an inordinate expense, as discovered in our budget exercise, poor educational opportunities, reduced job opportunities and above all, unequal wages of their male counterparts.

Specifically in households where Single African American females are the only income earner, low or no child support, environmental impacts such as crime and poor transportation also perpetuate the disease of poverty. 

I believe that in addition to programs that need implementing to reduce dependency of social programs, there should be an aggressive mentoring program where families that successfully escape poverty can showcase their stories and help assist other affected by the same.

  1. Good day everyone, two months ago  I was diagnosed with (urethral cancer), which had caused me a great deal of pain and pressure on my bladder. My doctor insisted that there was no other choice but to go under the knife. So everyday I was online searching for herbal medication. I never want to undergo any surgery. so. I have so many testimonies on how they were healed by dr. Imoloa herbal medication. without wasting time i contacted him (dr. Imoloa). on how to get the herbal remedies. I received the herbal package in less than a month, and I followed the steps and procedure on how I should be taking it. and one months later I was scheduled for an ultrasound check: it was shocking. The cancer had completely gone, I had consulted my doctor and canceled the surgery and with your dedicated counseling guidance I managed to completely treat the urethral cancer, along with the pain and anxiety that this condition had inflicted on me. a big thanks to God almighty, thank you Dr. Imoloa for the powerful herbal medication you have to cure people. you reach him on  Email- drimolaherbalmademedicine@gmail.com.
