I think your question assumes that poverty is somehow unnatural, as though the human animal is born with plenty and must be driven to poverty by some external force. But the masses have lived in poverty since the beginning of time,[0] because poverty is the state of nature. Anyone who says different is trying to sell you something.

Poverty will never cease to exist. Some people in the USA consider themselves poor, while having cars, houses, access to food and potable water. I myself had the opportunity to visit a indigenous tribe in Brazil. They would be considered poor by many people in the US, but they don't feel poor. I was offered shelter and food. They were happy to be able to offer me something, and that made them feel rich. We should do what we can to bring basic and humane conditions to all. What comes after that is harder to manage. A mutable definition of poverty will always make it a moving target that is impossible to fulfill.
