What is moral poverty? Do you believe the United States in a moral poverty crisis? Why or why not? If so, what can we do to solve this crisis?
What will be an ideal response?
It is the poverty of being without parents, guardians, relatives, friends, teachers, coaches, clergy, and others who habituate (to use a good Aristotelian word) children to feel joy at others’ joy; pain at others’ pain; satisfaction when you do right; (and) remorse when you do wrong. It is the poverty of growing up in the virtual absence of people who teach these lessons by their own everyday example and who insist that you follow suit and behave accordingly. In the extreme, it is the poverty of growing up surrounded by deviant, delinquent, and criminal adults in a practically perfect criminogenic environment--that is, an environment that seems almost consciously designed to produce vicious, unrepentant predatory street criminals.
