Since the mid-1960`s the US govt has spent $7-$8 trillion in an effort to end poverty in America. The American taxpayer has been taken to the cleaners over the last 45 years. Yet the poverty rate in the US remains about where its always been. Social engineering and wealth redistribution doesn’t work.

Some like me look at poverty aid as a safety net in case a situation occurs and you are truly destitute and need a little help to get back on your feet.

Others view it not as a net, but as a hammock.

What it all boils down to is this single view will almost always place the (D) or the (R) next to your name.

“Social engineering and wealth redistribution doesn’t work.”

Nope.

But Daddy staying home, certainly does.
