The birth
rate has always been high in the underdeveloped country, resulting in
escalating population and congested residential area. On top of that, with the
government and corporation's provision for health care, infant mortality and
death caused by disease has declined over years. Consequently, population has
continued to spiral out of control, and this alarming trend shows no signs
of abating. However, critical food shortage combined with a growing food
requirement by individual nation has led to a race to grasp resources through
whatever means necessary, including riots, wars and uprisings. These altogether
has brought about poverty and a vicious cycle.
Unfortunately,
it is poverty that makes a family keep bearing more children to create more
human labor. Lack of labor will only lead to greater poverty. Also,
organization like WTO aims to eliminate customs duties and create a fair
market, but it's impossible for a poor nation to take any advantage of the free
market. On the contrary, they are forced to open their own market, and the gap
between the poorest and the richest groups of people have and will widen in the
foreseeable future.
