The war on poverty started with FDR something like 65 years ago. It has cost us trillions upon trillions of dollars but has not caused the poverty rate to go down much at all. It has however managed to destroy many a family unit. Republicans have only had both houses of congress in conjunction with the White House for the last 4.5 years. I submit that the war on poverty is not a war on poverty but is a kinda slavery. Kinda like rescuing a bird with an injured wing and feeding it and keeping it safe from predators but never letting it fly away.
