documentary "Why Poverty?"

"Why Poverty?" is a series of 8 documentary films and 30 short films sponsored by an international non-profit, Steps International. They are shot by different directors from all over the world. These documentaries focus on how inequality affect societies and whether the poor can master their future. This is a question that all famous economists are unable to solve.  Economist Romain Rolland once said that there are three things that make him want to live and live again: Love, the endless eager for knowledge and the compassion for people's suffering such as poverty. I think one of the reasons that Economics is essential in all ages is that poverty can never be eliminated. This series is so real to watch.
