Getting rid of poverty is anything but simple.

That's esp. true since its often measured, in part or in whole, by "relative poverty" which is just a measure of inequality not actual poverty.

And actual poverty is largely the result of different capabilities, decisions, connections, and random chance between different people, none of those factors are easily subject to government action.
