I can agree with most readers and say that Abramsky has a very natural way of letting our society know that poverty is, in fact, an issue in our world today and needs to be taken care of immediately. I think Abramsky shows that you do not have to act in big ways to change the world we live in, but the smallest acts by everyone added up would make a huge impact on our society. Not only should we try and stop poverty all over the world, we should try to make sure it does not get worse and does not last as long as it seems that it is going to. It may seem impossible to completely try and stop this issue that is occurring all over but with the help of everyone, it is possible. The most interesting thing in this chapter was when he talked about the welfare system and how if we just improved that it would be a huge jump for the whole world of poverty. Not even just making it a better system but trying to build on to the programs that we already have enacted. Overall, his solutions seem to be very doable to me. I think that our country should really take into consideration what many people like Abramsky are saying and try to improve our entire system.

Potential Test Question: What could we do to build on to our welfare system?
