Economics (9-1) - 0987 CIE

Poverty (continued)

Muhtasari

Poverty is more than low income: it means poor health, little education and lives cut short. Governments have a toolbox of policies to fight it, but each has costs as well as benefits.

In this lesson you will study the main policies used to reduce poverty and redistribute income: promoting economic growth, improving education and healthcare, more generous state benefits, progressive taxation and a national minimum wage. By the end you will be able to explain how each one works and judge how effective it is.

Malengo

  1. promoting economic growth
  2. improved education
  3. improved healthcare provision
  4. more generous state benefits
  5. progressive taxation
  6. national minimum wage (NMW)

Maelezo ya Somo

Reducing poverty raises living standards, improves health and education, and lets more people contribute to the economy. But every anti-poverty policy costs money or has side effects, so governments must choose carefully. Examiners ask you to explain the mechanism of each policy and to evaluate how well it works, which means weighing the gains against the drawbacks.
