Abstract: The possible reasons of poverty in industrialized countries are considered in article on the example of Russia. The model is built on the principles of sociomechanics that use the representation of people as objects with a continuous structure. They can be characterized by means of the interaction between them. This approach allowed us to build a "model of Carlssons - Svenssons - Johanssons," which gives a good matching with the official data on poverty. The main causes of poverty are defined. Existence of a large number of children in low-income and therefore less educated families is one of them. The low wage in such families also because of deficiency of education is another reason of poverty. Thus, education is the most effective way of fight against poverty.
