No, we couldn't win it ... the "right people" weren't in charge long enough.

I thought we won the War on Poverty in the Johnson years. Three trillion dollars later, we have 10 times as many with 20 times the arrogance about what their "rights" are, crime in their ghettos has increased exponentially, and they enjoy are given a quality of life better than 90 of the rest of the world's middle class!

Johnson's War on Poverty was nothing more than a successful attempt to buy votes for many generations for DemocRATS. There may have been some good intentions in the beginning; but, the War on Poverty quickly made poverty pimps out of ALL DemocRAT office holders.
