It’s stupid to assume anything will solve the issue at hand. Your solution certainly doesn’t.
I can actually cite examples where it did.
Ben Carson is a perfect example. Instead of laying on her ass expecting someone else to care for them she worked tirelessly to provide them a decent home, a good education for Carson, and he went on to pioneer treatments and srugical techniques saving hundreds or thousands of lives and improving the lives of many other seriously afflicted children.
How about Herman Cain, raised in Georgia in the Jim Crow era by a mom who was a maid/house cleaner and a disabled dad that worked as a barber?
He went on to great wealth as a multi millionaire, CEO, radio host, and politician.
He could have chosen instead to sit on his ass, knock up three or four baby mommas so they could all collect welfare for a couple of generations.
How about Clarence Thomas who grew up in almost the exact same situation in the same era with a difference of only three years in their lives?
How about JK Rowling who just over 20 years ago was living in poverty on gov't assistance for herself and her son?
People who stay sober, out of prison, graduate HS and learn a skill, get a degree, join the Military etc can move themselves and their families out of poverty in just one generation.
Breaking that cycle of poverty can be done and has been done and it starts with refusing to be satisfied sitting on your ass in public housing, popping out babbies like a gumball machine, or being a street thug sipping Colt 45, smoking doobies, and sampling whatever chemicals he is selling to his own people to destroy their lives before he ends up sitting out large portions of his life in prison.
Simply throwing money at the problem so that it is ever growing doesn't solve a damned thing it just helps to extend poverty to more and more generations.
