Economic Poverty – Lack of resources
“The daily income generated by scavenging in the dump is on average less than $2.00, just enough for one meal, and a far cry from what is needed for access to basic human services. At this rate, progress and growth are impossible and the scavengers never make it out of the “just living to make it through each day” reality. Even if they did make enough to save a little, access to economical resources is basically a closed door for the scavengers because of lack of records and references.”
