Question

All of the following are the effects of a culture of poverty EXCEPT

gangs and drugs.
high taxes and few services.
homelessness and hunger.
crime and punishments.
illiteracy and unemployment.

Answer 1

High taxes and few services.

Step-by-step explanation:

High taxes and few services is not an effect of the culture of poverty, but of the mismanagement of a government's fiscal resources. Thus, the high amount or value of taxes paid by citizens, combined with little or poor provision of public services, is a clear sign that the government, at the very least, is using public funds improperly, not even to mention possible cases of corruption and embezzlement of public funds.
