You missed the whole point of the article. The "poverty" problem in America isn't caused by a lack of jobs. The bigger problem is that a disproportionate share of the people classified as "poor" in this country are unemployed because they are unemployable.

And that is a cultural and moral rot that has been foisted on America by its own elected leaders.

I do not believe most of these people are “unemployable” except that they’ve become so. Bring back jobs and cut down on freebies and you’d be surprised what people can accomplish.
