Question 1: The Rich and the Poor
The term poor refers to the people who do not have enough wealth to feed and cloth their families, on the contrary the term rich refers to the people who possess wealth and are capable of buying the luxuries for them. Poverty exists everywhere, and, unfortunately, in the third world countries its magnitude is substantial. Every year, millions of people in underdeveloped countries die because of starvation or various diseases.

On the other hand, developed countries have a low rate of poverty, although the gap in developing countries between rich and poor is also increasing. The main causes are availability of exclusive luxuries for the rich people, like exclusive clubs, parks, resorts, lawns etc. These exclusive luxuries are creating a gap between the rich and poor in developed countries.

The presence of the middle class is waning as the difference between the upper, and lower classes are growing larger. It is raising
