Yeah I'd say the poor aren't doing badly in this country.
Most of em don't pay any Fed income taxes yet they enyoy the largess of those of us that do.
They also have no need to change their life style. I mean why should they?? A free ride is much better than having to pay for anything.
Do you support ending all programs that aid the poor/low income Americans?
Will they then magically find prosperity somewhere? Or will they be more like the poor in the third world, in places like Africa, like the poor in India, or various other places where the government and those who are better off do little or nothing on behalf of the poor?
How does this program of neglect work exactly to make things better?
During the Depression there were no welfare programs as there are today. Did we become like Africa or India?
Americans are the most generous people in the world. We give more to charity than any other people. Partly because many of our rich were once poor themselves. End governmental programs. Stop paying people to be poor. Stop SSI for alcoholics and drug addicts. They grow to consider alcoholism and drug addiction as their means of making a living.
There you have it people. More confirmation. Conservatives would prefer us to return to the conditions of the Depression as it relates to poverty...
...we'll assume this idiot means pre-FDR actions conditions.
