In today's Western society, poverty is often viewed as the result of poor decision-making or lack of responsibility: poor people just shouldn’t be so lazy, dumb, or impulsive. But is there really someone to blame and if so, who? And how does this stigma mentally affect individuals who rely on government assistance? Listen and learn from philosopher Jeanette Kennett on the moral psychology of being poor.
