I didn’t create this monstrosity - but I’m willing to take a stab at slaying the monster…

Poverty was created by humans out of fear - fear of failure. Riches separate people - those with wealth are viewed as successful. Those without wealth are viewed as failures. The truth is that many rich people hide their fear of failure behind their wealth - not a simple paradox of low esteem vs. high income, but one of low security vs. high safety. Otherwise, the rich would share their advantage and hail the holism of planetary prosperity - and some genuinely do that as philanthropy.

Poverty is a reflection of integrity - some people’s lack of integrity, and some people’s laud of integrity. Poverty is the result of our separation from one-another - our lack of wholeness. Integrity maintains the welfare of our wholeness. Without integrity, we are incomplete - and income can fill that void vicariously, not virtuously.

Integrity is a virtuous template - idealism is a virtual topic. We must rely on integrity to create lasting, ameliorative change and progress. I’ve said it more times than I want to hear and I’ll say it again: integrity is the solution to every problem.

Monsters are borne in schisms - integrity seals these schisms without compromise (OOPS… Poverty Unveiled!).

Integrity is in opposition to poverty - Tris. 

Judicious incomes make for justifiable outcomes - Tris.
