But have liberals ever admitted the gigantic failure of the Great Society and perpetual welfare programs in general? Now Obama would like to gut welfare by eliminating work requirements again. Their failure to learn lessons never ceases to amaze me. The best thing that could happen for poor Black Americans is to have welfare virtually shut off. If Johnson's Great Society programs didn't underline the basic stupidity of all governmentally-directed methods to help poor people by shoveling a mountain of tax money on it , nothing did.

The sentimental liberals who are governed by emotion are incapable of learning. They’re almost as dangerous as the Marxist ideologies bent on collapsing the system.
The ONLY immediate and politically feasible way to break the cycle is to voucherize the schools. Private schools CAN provide decent education to welfare kids, and point these children to the emergency exits.
