Poverty in America (25 Pages, 298.75 $ (USD) )

This 25 page report discusses poverty in America and its impact on quite nearly every problem in America - crime, drug abuse, teen pregnancy, AIDS, spouse abuse, malnutrition, school drop-out rates and more. Since the 1960s and 1970s, policymakers have fiercely debated the appropriate role of government in providing solutions to these problems. Treating only the symptoms of poverty is costly, and trying to eliminate poverty by isolating the poor sacrifices the approach proven to be most effective: integration into mainstream society. This report examines some of the most significant impacts of poverty in modern America. Bibliography lists 22 sources.

Absolute Poverty And Absolute Affluence: Should One Support The Other? (5 Pages, 59.75 $ (USD) )

5 pages in length. There exists a moral and ethical responsibility for the absolute affluent to provide at least modicum of sustenance for the absolute poverty-stricken population. As so well defined in Peter Singer's "Rich and Poor," there are people throughout the world who have far more wealth than they could ever possibly put to use for themselves; in contrast, there are those who go for days without even as much as a balanced meal, uncovering scraps of inedible food stuff just as a means by which to stay alive. Why is there such a distance between the absolute affluent and those in absolute poverty? There are many factors that address the underlying separation between the two worlds; however, one thing is clear: inasmuch as the absolute affluent possess an overabundance of what is to be considered an adequate amount of livable resources, it is up to them to help provide for those who live in absolute poverty. The writer takes the stance that absolute affluence should support absolute poverty. No additional sources cited.

Minority Immigrants Living in Poverty: Education and Employment Factors (Canadian Studies Highlighted) (10 Pages, 119.5 $ (USD) )

This is a 10 page paper discussing minority immigrants living in poverty and the relation to education and employment. Within the last decade, increasing high levels of poverty have been recorded in the minority and recent immigrant populations in Canada and the United States. In Canada, recent immigrants make up over 52% of those under the poverty line in urban areas. Traditionally, immigrants coming into Canada whether skilled or unskilled laborers reached the average Canadian income in less than 10 years after their arrival. Educated immigrants previously had attained average or above income. Within the last 10 years however, this has not been the case and educated and professional immigrants are among the poorest population group in Canada along with the uneducated minority immigrants. Part of this is because it had been felt that due to the decline in the labor market, employers do not recognize the foreign credentials of immigrants but many critics also believe that discrimination plays a large part as well. Educational programs within Canada and the United States tend to focus on overcoming the language barrier firstly in addition to upgrading any educational or occupational labor skills. Regardless of the awareness of increased need in this area, many researchers still agree that the greatest barrier for most minority immigrants is racism which unless overcome will continue to reflect in an unequal representation of immigrant groups in poverty.
