If they're still in poverty, you cannot claim that it made them better off.We know that redistributing trillions of dollars hasn't made them wealthier, as evidenced by the lack of decline in poverty rate, so how does removing the "assistance" harm them?Maybe you can 'splain it
How does removing assistance to the poor make them wealthier?
It makes them wealthier than they would be if they received no aid at all.
You have yet to explain how removing aid makes them better off
It's not my job to make someone better off who does nothing for me or anyone else.
