Many lower class citizens are at or below the poverty line and are have and unavoidable disadvantages and poorer chances to discover life’s possibilities. Regardless of the potential and ambition that a lower class individual could possess, he or she will not be given opportunities to succeed like a higher class individual. People who are considered lower class do not have access to many of the resources like a wealthier societies do. Based on their economic situation, they automatically start behind the eight ball. Wealthier societies have exceptional educational services which include better teachers, utilities, and curriculum, whereas poorer societies just get by on the bare minimum.
Jon Porter once said, “It is imperative that when thousands of selfless volunteers respond to those who have incurred the wrath of a natural disaster that legal liability need not be hanging over their heads”. In our society today, we are very busy living our lives and finding or continuing a career. In all our busy lives we often forget to the help the ones in need but some people do remember to be helpful and creates NGOs to help and The Canadian Red Cross is just one of them. Their mission is to improve the lives of people in need by multiplying the power of humanity in Canada and around the world. The Canadian red cross is a very successful NGO and helped millions of people throughout the years, including the Pakistani refugees in India, victims of the Guatemala earthquake that killed 22,000, the Southeast Asia refugees and victims of war in 1970.
They also live for the moment (present gratification). Some sociologists say that these attitudes and values prevent people from escaping poverty. For example, the attitudes and values of the poor mean that many don't stay in education, so they can't use qualifications to escape from their poverty. Some sociologists criticise this explanation of poverty because although it shows how people in poverty might adapt to their situation, it doesn't explain why people are in poverty in the first place. Another explanation of poverty is the poverty cycle.
Singer is writing to any person with the ability to donate. In this piece he makes it clear that nearly everyone has the ability to make a difference is others lives. The situations he uses are all very relatable; making his arguments connect on a personal level. With the author and reader connected on a personal level, Singer’s arguments have a stronger effect. Singer states “$200 in donations would help a sickly 2-year-old transform into a healthy 6-year-old” (Singer 310).
Because of this, Canadians respected him a lot which also supported him to do more contributions for this country. In addition, Laurier served the country for 15 years as the Prime Minister of Canada. He was also the leader of the Canadian Liberal Party which was established by him. Sir Wilfrid Laurier attracted my attention a lot because he was a gritty person when he was only a teenager, he was also a modest politician and he did many contributions for education. Laurier was born to a poor family but he always worked hard and he was a really gritty child
Many people are only 1 paycheck away from being considered low income and fewer and fewer people are being considered middle class. What will happen if nothing is done? Will people be willing to have the government help them and will there be those people who think that the government is just wasting more money? Too many people take things for granted and don’t want to see what is really happening around
Our outreach programs have expanded our client base to include the elderly, most of whom who couldn’t afford their Medicare co-payments. In the past fifteen years, I have worked with an increasingly diverse community. We have seen an increase in the Mexican, Pakistani, African American population. I like to think we have made a positive impact on the teen pregnancy rate here because of our educational offerings. I have dealt with gang members and mosque members with the same level of respect.
The book indicates that a single-parent “has been demonstrated not to affect children’s cognitive and emotional functioning (Foster & Kalil, 2007). However, I believe that conflicts found in a single-parent household may not be linked to the parent who has raised their children, but they can be associated with other things related to single parenting. Normally when there is only one parent, the family is often less financially stable which is the main reason for many family problems. Also, lower education levels and lower economic achievements have been associated with effects of coming from a low income family. It is also true that these children are less supervised because they don’t receive the time and communication from their parents.
