“The War on Poverty” was never about ending poverty. It was about securing an undefeatable democrat majority. What was it LBJ said. Something about ‘someone’ voting for them for 200 years???
Just like the ‘affordable’ care act.
LBJ didn’t mince words. When he launched the horrendous “War on Poverty,” he predicted, “The n*****s will be voting Democrat for two hundred years.” And they were stupid enough to do just that for the past 50, with no sign that they have caught on that this is destroying them.
Always was about control. Look what's happening now. The poor are getting too demanding and too expensive. So the powers that be are bringing in a whole new poor underclass.
What's going to happen when the poor black underclass (augmented by African refugees) get into open violent warfare with the poor Hispanic underclass?
I do believe it will happen. And I further believe its purpose is to create poorer people who expect less.
The so-called war on poverty has created more poverty and was intended to keep blacks voting for democRATS. Secondarily, the money had to be “administered” and the graft of that administrative cost has created legions of bureaucrats who are also dependent on that administrative graft. And those administrators are also, Dues paying union memebers who vote....democRAT

Yes, it was Lyndon Johnson. And he was right although 200 years may be on the low side. Freepers should do a little research and learn for themselves who that ‘someone’ actually is.
The other name for “War on Poverty” is “Robbing the Productive”
