Question

In thinking about social mobility, what percentage of people born into poverty will remain there? Identify and explain 2 issues preventing impoverished people from upward mobility. You must provide at least 1 source for each example.

Answer 1

the percentage of people born into poverty will remain there is about: 70%

2 things that preventing them from moving upward are:
- They don't have enough opportunity.
Which means that they're most likely wouldn't be able to gain access to good schools, enough capital to open a business, etc.
- They have a wrong perspective
Because the parents do not have what it takes to be successful, they often transferred their perspective to the children and the children ended up exactly like the parent.
