Poverty is a challenge to Society. It is what the poor are when not poor that sustains Democracy, and weakens it the more they slide back.

Every person who cannot contribute to the society, (due to class, education or even the simple necessities of a regular bath, or sufficient food) is a loss of that potential contribution to that society.

Any person who was concerned that the society prosper, and certainly any person with empathy for others would want to do what was possible to reduce poverty, and at least lessen the worst effects.

Those cases where they have done so do indeed prosper more than those who do not.

More important however is what happens to those people when they can rise above poverty and become middle class.

The first gift is time, the poor have to spend hours where having minimal funds need minutes, traveling, communicating, even washing dishes, are huge chunks of wasted time that benefits nobody.

But with the magic of that efficiency what can be done with that extra time is what can make or break a Democracy. because it is then that a person can become aware of the reality around them and work to improve it.

It is actually that large middle class that generates the wealth and has the political muscle of both numbers and money to stabilize that society. It is more the middle class that make Democracy possible than the reverse.

In addition it is the abuse of honor and power that create great power and wealth in a few individuals. Rarely it is simple luck that gets them there, more often it is lies or unfair advantage that is, or should be, criminal.

That concentration of power corrupts, and eventually destroys the society's ability to act efficiently. It is only societies that have curtailed such criminality that truly prosper. And only a strong, Democratic Middle Class can do that.
