1. Explain what the four factors of poverty are and how they impact one’s life.

The four factors of poverty are the main reasons that poverty and the cycle of poverty exist. They range from having a poor education to not having parents. The four factors are Health, education, family/house, and geography. They affect a person because it leads to a vicious cycle that most people can’t stop. It renders a lot of pf people useless and there’s not much that can stop it.

2. Explain how the cycle of poverty works.

First, you are born, go to a school that you don’t take seriously, and drop out. Or, you just weren’t lucky enough to get a good education and never got yourself off the ground. Then, once your older you get pregnant by a random person or impregnate a person. After that, the kid you brought into the world does the exact same thing you did, causing everyone to make the same mistakes that you did. They also might not have a good school or a very low-income household. Your parents might not be able to afford a proper school so you have to rely on a bad education.

3. How do we help people get healthy food cheaply (make sure your answer is realistic)?

As the previous eighth-graders proposed we could start a community garden. We could set up gardens in the city that we can come to after school or an arranged time during school to water the plants. Then we have a big sale, selling the produce we made for about ten cents to a dollar.

What government policy suggestions do you have?

I think the government should make a policy that produces shouldn’t exceed a certain price and if it does then the Government would find them a lot of money.

What changes can you/we make to help? We could decrease the cost of healthy food choices. Since the farmers are being hurt by this we could give them a bonus if they surpass a certain number of sales.

Defend your answer. Since the cost of veggies is so high and these low-income families have so little money to spend on food they can’t get healthy food choices causing them to be groggy, fat, lazy, and just not productive so if we decrease the cost then the overall population should work more efficiently and be productive.
