Indeed, in my experience, I notice that the government of my country fails to provide adequate needs to the homeless because it believes it is an individual and charitable organizations issue. While the work of charitable organizations is admirable, the fact that these non-profit organizations deal with social and political issues can however be problematic, as these charitable companies often have biases against people in need which can prevent them from extending their help to all the people who suffer. from social issues. For example, because the organization where my mother works was religiously founded, it focused its help only on homeless children suffering from mental illnesses and not on all people suffering from the same conditions. Therefore, like most public aid, for-profit organizations can also make a distinction when offering their help to deserving and unworthy individuals. Furthermore, because these organizations are fueled by the American belief in self-actualization, they tend to emphasize the individual role in poverty and to see poverty rather as a characteristic and not as a social defect. As a result, charitable organizations can advocate for individual relief and change to stop poverty. Finally, charities can also cause major problems in how countries evaluate and measure poverty. For example, it can give the impression that the individual is at fault for their living conditions, and secondly, it can cause greater devolution of federal and government social programs. In other words, the presence of charities and other corporations can lead the government to indirectly decrease its political participation in social issues, turning it into a responsibility of communities and local authorities. This in turn may influence the variation and diversity of social programs in the United States, while still reflecting the current predominant view
