Poverty Coincides with Politics

I just read over an article located at this site: http://www.globalissues.org/TradeRelated/Poverty.asp

The woman writing about these issues explains the role of politics in the fact that poverty exists.

I found these thought to be extremely interesting. I found them particularly intriguing thanks mostly to my recently founded opinions on politics and the political regime. We see how politics have played such an important role in the progress of poverty.

It seems that everytime there is a war poverty follows. This is how politics play into it. A war these days tends to be fought on grounds of differences in politics and other things. As the article states, a lot of times trade is involved.

I find it ironic that a lot of the time the politicians that are elected by the people send their countries war and force the people that voted for them into poverty. The right political agenda can help stop this, however, that's a dangerous path because somehow it might show weakness.
