Why The Rich Ignore The Poor
Related to country: Nigeria

Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

The rich (so called affluent and influential people) have in recent times have degenerated to the point where the see the poor as second class citizens and as nuisances rather than as fellow human beings like them.

While this is so, I will strongly agree that many of those that are poor, are in that condition because of their lackadaisical (lazy) and indifferent behaviors towards life and opportunities. Notwithstanding, there are lots of poor people out there who are ambitious, intelligent, hard-working and well-skilled, but all they need is the backing and support of one or two of these rich and influential people to either finance their idea or work a way for them to have a stepping ground, as we are in a world where the poor are not giving an opportunity to speak irrespective of whether they carry the golden ideas or not. We are in a society where to get a job you need to have a rich or influential person to back you up and in the case where the rich ignore the poor, it does not need to be overemphasized as it is obvious that only the rich get the good jobs, as the rich recommend the rich (those they feel are in their same class) ignoring the poor who most times are the brains of the society, thereby subjecting that poor but educated young man / woman to continuous hardship and suffering both for his or herself and their dependent family. Most of this poor homes cannot afford to send all their children to school, in most cases they tend to educate only one out of all their children due to financial restrictions, hoping that the educated one will become the light of the family after college, only for that only-trained son/daughter to be ignored by the labor market (job market) due to the fact that he / she is not from a wealthy home and therefore cannot get the recommendation of a rich and influential person for he/she to be even considered for employment or skilled opportunities. When a wealthy man/woman opens a company, he/she employs fellow kids of rich and influential citizens in the juicy positions then leave the derogatory and junior positions for the kids of the poor who in most cases have the same qualifications like the wealthy children who where given the juicy positions.

Secondly, the rich and influential people most times feign (pretend) giving the poor youths a hearing ear, only with the intention to listen to their viable ideas then run-off to implement them for their self-gratification because they have the financial-power to do so, thereby abandoning the poor youth to their fate with no credit to his/her name. The rich tend to see any poor person that comes towards them as a beggar, and thereby believe that the poor should not be given the opportunity to enjoy the good-things of life rather they should be used for derogatory and worthless jobs that eats them rather than build their skill and experience.
