Give most folks free money and their spending expands, turn off the spigot and they adjust. No sympathy.

Local communities should be the ones providing for the poor not DC commies. We need to start at the community level to get this country back

STOP with the BS about ‘child poverty’.

EVERY ONE of these families has at least ONE cell phone & plenty of electronic games.

Not an enumerated power to give money away as a negative tax.

We had that argument with Nixon and Ford back in the 70s. We lost.

Earned Income Tax Credit “EITC” first proposed by Nixon, signed into law by Ford and increased by every administration since, no exceptions.

The Constitution lost … around 1937. Since then we’ve had lawless scum building on / sustaining FDR’s legacy of high handed lawlessness.

Child poverty rises up when a male impregnates a female and then leaves.

I suspect a lot of “child poverty” today involves the anchor babies and other children trafficked here due to decades of negative American birthrates; they are an imported underclass, and many have parents working for unreported income. The “urban poor” have also watched their birthrate drop (especially after “cash for kids” ended in 1996); the urban cores are receding inwards while the suburbs recede outward, and we’re importing massive numbers of foreigners to fill the growing chasm between them.
