Are people morally obligated to help the poor? minimum of 300 words please​

Yes, by giving them opportunities and guidance to help themselves. Not by giving them charity, which is often more harmful than withholding help.

People are poor for various reasons. It may be due to trauma or crisis impoverishing them (natural disasters, serious accidental injury, death of a bread winner in the family, serious illness, disability, birth of a child with significant special needs, etc.). It may be due to being born into poverty and deprived of opportunity. Or it may simply be due to making poor life choices. The last is probably the most common in developed countries, but it must be remembered - with compassion and empathy - that a person who makes bad choices may never have had the opportunity to learn how to make good choices. Also, sometimes there just aren’t any good choices available! It can be a case of bad, worse, or terrible!

We are all morally obliged to help those who suffer because of natural disaster or genuine crisis if we are able. We are morally obliged to help those who are deprived of fair opportunity. And to the extent that we are able, we should help those who make poor choices by offering guidance to understand the cause of their poverty and how to improve their situation. We are morally obliged to do what we can to ensure the poor have access to reasonable opportunities to lift themselves up. If they reject opportunities or guidance, however, our obligation ends. We are not obliged to bash heads against brick walls, and we are certainly not obliged to offer handouts to people who don’t make reasonable efforts to help themselves. Nor are we obliged to place ourselves or our loved ones at risk of becoming poor by extending help to others.

hope it helps u.
