how poverty violets the right to equal accessnto basic services
Answers
Explanation:
It doesn’t. You just have to make the effort to go and *apply* for those basic services. Nobody will deny you water from a public water-fountain, and you can walk to the free food banks, or soup kitchens, or to the local or state or federal welfare offices to apply for Medicare or food stamps. You can beg on the street for enough money to get a private mail-box, use that as your legal address, and apply to vote. If police arrest you, you can apply for a lawyer from Legal Aid. If you don’t commit felony crimes, you can carry a firearm. I’ve been poor, and I’ve been homeless, and I know that these services are available. You just have to know they exist and go apply for them.
Poverty is not only deprivation of economic or material resources but a violation of human dignity too.Poverty erodes or nullifies economic and social rights such as the right to health, adequate housing, food and safe water, and the right to education.
