Why is it that the rich get richer and the poor stay poor?

The poor stay poor because they're stuck in a vicious cycle. Because they have little to no income they could not afford to provide their children with an ample amount of education to prepare them for the future. 

A lack of proper education would lead to a very minimal amount of job opportunities. The jobs that they may get are of the same class, if not lower, as their parents.  

Since their jobs are low-paying, they cannot provide the right education for THEIR children to get a good job in the future. 

The rich on the other hand can only get richer from here on out because of a similar cycle. Since their jobs are high-paying, they can provide the right amount of education for their children so that they can make enough money to one day become  as, if not more, successful than their parents. 

Another reason why they could be getting richer is because their companies are ever-expanding. These companies are looking for new ventures to invest in to further increase their income and brand recognition. 

How does the devastation brought from Typhoon Haiyan make you feel?
I knew the destruction was going to be severe but I never knew the extent of it until my friends abroad started getting worried and asking me if I was okay. Social networking successfully showed me just how devastating this typhoon was, not only from the concern of my peers, but by the videos and pictures that I saw being shared by everyone.

How should people prepare for and respond to disasters like Typhoon Haiyan?
What many people did not know during the many weather reports and warnings was what some of the terms were like 'storm surge'. Some people only prepared by protecting their houses from strong winds, not aware of the flooding that may happen. What we can do next time is to either have local government or public television educate their citizens about the meteorological terminology that they may use.

Why do people live in vulnerable areas?
Because they could not afford to live any place better.
