“The greatest of evils and the worst of crimes is poverty.”
— George Bernard Shaw

Simplified Meaning:
When people have no money or resources, it leads to suffering and bad situations. Without enough money, individuals struggle to buy food, live in a safe home, or get a good education, leading to bigger problems. For example, a child from a poor family might not attend school, limiting their job opportunities in the future and causing a cycle of poverty that’s hard to escape. Poverty can push people into dangerous or illegal activities, just to survive. Solving poverty helps everyone because it reduces crime and improves society. Helping people find better jobs, offering education, and providing basic needs can change lives for the better.
