is, to most Blacks, a state of mind. Those who accept it are poor... those who struggle are middle class.

Being Black and poor is, I think, radically different from being anything else and poor. Poor, to most Blacks, is a state of mind. Those who accept it are poor... those who struggle are middle class.

is (like slavery and apartheid), not natural. It is man-made and it can be overcome and eradicated by the actions of human beings.

is a byproduct of the modern welfare state and diminished sense of social responsibility. Individuals become less willing to be held accountable for their own actions and, instead, turn to the government for protection.

To Friedman, poverty is a byproduct of the modern welfare state and diminishedsense of social responsibility. Individuals become less willing to be held accountable fortheir own actions and, instead, turn to the government for protection.

Friedman argues that governmentprograms like Social Security have eroded individual initiative and responsibility, giventhe prevailing belief that 'government will provide for my needs'.

is a curse that has no justification in our age. It is socially as cruel and blind as the practice of cannibalism at the dawn of civilization, when men ate each other because they had not yet learned to take food from the soil or to consume the abundant animal life around them. The time has come for us to civilize ourselves by the total, direct and immediate abolition of poverty.

is a matter of capability deprivation. It is not just money or inequality, but about a lack of options possible for the poor to change their situation.

Poverty is not only about being short of money or about inequalities in society, but also e.g. of the options posible for the poor to change their situation.'

is a result of being irresponsible and lazy. If one gets educated and works hard, one can succeed in this country. Period. Period.

It's hard to do it because you gotta look people in the eye and tell 'em they're irresponsible and lazy. And who's gonna wanna do that' Because that's what poverty is, ladies and gentlemen. In this country, you can succeed if you get educated and work hard. Period. Period. Bill O'Reilly

is a result of too little prosperity. It is not caused by the distribution of wealth.

In the view of Hayek, poverty is generally a result of too little prosperity. At first, this may sound as a trivial remark, but it is not. To the contrary, it entails important information about Hayek's view on poverty issues, especially about which concept of poverty should be applied... absolute or relative poverty. Clearly, Hayek only accepts absolute poverty as a problem the society ought to address. Moreover, his emphasis on increasing prosperity is also associated to his refutation of the idea that the distribution of wealth is a significant cause of poverty. Hayek does not consider unequal distribution of wealth as an important factual cause of poverty.'
