doing. If there 74.____

bureaucrats. Poverty makes life easier for
the rich by providing them with cookers, 76.____
gardeners, and other workers to perform

more pleasurable activities. Poverty
provides a market for more inferior goods and 78.____
service, such as dayold bread, rundown automobiles, or the advice of
competent 79.____
