Die samelewing raak maklik immuun teen mense se armoede.
Party sal dalk sê dis deels vanweë die Bybelse argument dat ons
die armes altyd met ons sal hê. Of dit kan wees dat, hoewel meer
welvarende mense bewus is dat armoede bestaan, die verskynsel
so veelvlakkig en ingewikkeld is – en so fi sies verwyder – dat dit
moeilik is om ten volle te begryp.

Society becomes easily inured to poverty. Some
may say that this is partly owing to a Biblical apologetic that the poor
we will always have with us. Or it may be that, while the more affluent
are aware that poverty exists, it is so multilayered and complex – and
so physically distant – that it is difficult to grasp fully.
