Poverty

Poverty

Costa Rica suffers an economical, society and security crisis. Those problems contribute to have another trouble that summarizes all of them: the poverty. Many people are victim about this situation, the inequality is present in our country, and the poor person is one that supports the worse part of it. I am going to talk about the three most important causes that are: few opportunities to study, the low interest of the adolescents to study and the state´s role about the education.

The few opportunities to study, for many people, cause the small amount of professionals. Several citizens said that, in our country, we don’t have a lot of employment, but for me it is not the real situation. I think that the reality that we live in Costa Rica is that doesn’t exist enough professionals to help our country to develop. I can see that we have many chances to get a job; the problem is that the people are not specialized or prepared.

Other problem could be the low interest of the adolescents to study. Nowadays, the juvenility prefers to stay in the streets doing bad things. They want to get easy money; they don’t want to make an effort and work to get what they need or what they desire. They only think in parties, liqueur and woman. Some youth people lose the sense of values, and unfortunately the parents are not present with them or they don’t have authority or control about their children.

The government has a lot of blame about the situation of poverty that we live in our country; because, they have an inefficient system. Talking about education, that I think that is the main reason of this problem. Many people need the economic help of the government in order to continue their studies, but it system is very incompetent. I said that because I know about cases of persons who pass two, three until four or six months without receive financial aid and they really need it to continue their studies, because the hard economic situation of the family.

So, as we saw this problem is not easy to solve, but if we make an effort we can diminish this situation. All together, we can make the difference in anything or job that we do if we do it well. The government is the principal key that can take action about it. The members of it should be honest and forget the corruption in order to have a better and productive country.
