Poverty industry Totally Explained

Everything about The Poverty Industry totally explained

The poverty industry refers to a wide-range of money-making activities that attract a large part of their business from the poor because they're poor. It could be argued that the following businesses are part of or contribute to the poverty industry: payday loan centers, pawnshops, casinos, liquor stores, tobacco stores, and credit card companies. Illegal ventures such as loansharking or drug-dealing might also be included. It is often argued that such businesses are unethical even if they're legal. This isn't to say that a particular business doesn't provide a legitimate service (such as credit card companies) or that all businesses of some type should be considered part of the industry. Some practices might also be considered poverty industry symptoms such as secondary mortgage institutions.
