It really matters not what part of the world you speak about today. Every single country has major problems whether admitted or not and the governments are really not doing anything to help.
In the United States for instance, today there is a massive cut back in the Food Stamp program which will impact as many as 40 million people. The problem is that no one is willing to address this correctly. As in any program where there is a lot of money involved you will find some amount of fraud but rather than really cracking down on that a bunch of politicians got together and just pulled a dollar figure out of their collective ass without having any idea how much actual fraud is taking place.
In other countries around the world all of the “fixes” are beating the hell out of people that are already struggling just to survive.
I suggest that we go to the financial institutions that have been making massive profits because the governments in a lot of cases have been essentially funding them and take back some of that profit and lets feed, clothe and house people. Or rather than taking it back stop this BS about how paying people more will cripple the economy. People have had their wages cut immensely over the last decade and that has not helped prevent the problem or brought back the economy one damned bit.
In the 80s and 90s people were treated and paid far better than they are now and we had a magnificent economy. How about if we go back there?
