Keywords:
Government Role, Poverty, Economic and Social DimensionsAbstract
This piece looks at the role of a government in dealing with poverty from money and social views. Poverty is a tricky issue tied to many things and needs government help through big picture plans. Money rules that put cash into roads and social support create chances and lessen unfairness, while rules about cash push funding and jobs to ease poverty. Good plan-making and open checks let governments meet outside problems, like money crises. Clear management and active work from all parts help make policies work well. Using flexible rules that match shifting money times is key for helping fairness and lasting h͏ealth in community. The state’s smart method to equalize money rise and social care is must for lessening hardship and building a united and strong society.
