    THERE ARE POOR PEOPLE BECAUSE THE HIGHT POPULETION AND THEY DON'T HAVE MONEY BECAUSE THERE ARE POOR SO THEY CAN'T PAY FOR SCHOOL, TO BE SOMETING IN EARTH LIKE A "ABOGADO" POLICE AND MAYBE IF THEY HAVE A CHIELD HIS CHIELD COULD BE A PREDIDENT OF UNITED STETE.

    I think that poverty in México is because of there economy for example there are some rich people in Mexico and poor people in México. And there are people that are poor because there generation where slaves or poor and the rich people have there money because they ether got it from there family or they worked for it and went to school to become some thing in life another thing that can cause poverty is te government but they also help people but the government takes away money from the poor to make them poor and the rich people who have humongous houses of 12 to 15 rooms not like the poor who get paid .50 cents an hour and that is rich to compare to poor people

  11. I think that what cause poverty is because there is not job for the people and they dont have money to buy food and clothes and in other part make good houses..

  12. One couse of poverty is people with out jobs ("have nots") also because theres some lazy people all they like is sleep, sleep sleep.. but most dont have jobs, another couse of poverty is their land, their land is not good enough to plant crops is too rocky and theres no water..to many mountains.
