Description[?]:
Why should people suffer in abject poverty? Every man, woman and child should have a reasonable standard of living, and a reasonable standard of life. We should not subject children to a crap life because we are too tight and too loony right wing to give people a decent standard of life, just so the rich can be richer, while the poor can be poorer, we should tackle the poverty gap, tackle it by making it smaller and not larger. |
