The problem of poverty in the modern world and its solutions

I chose this topic because the problem of poverty and wealth can be considered the most significant of all the social problems inherent in any social system at all times. The problem of wealth and poverty excites the minds of millions of people since time immemorial, when the emergence of private property and inequality ended the period of the primitive "communism" and was the transition to a civilization in which the primitive equality was replaced by social stratification characterized by uneven distribution of the most limited resources of society - money, power, and prestige of education among the different strata (layers) of the population [3].
