"Let's talk about poor people in America. Statistics from
the Census Bureau out this week say poverty is increasing
for the first time in 22 years. The bureau puts the number at
about 38 million folks living below the poverty line of $30,000
a year for a family of four.

President Biden says poverty is increasing because of some
cutbacks to the massive social programs Democrats have
created. The left is committed to supporting Americans who
cannot cut it in the marketplace by giving them entitlements
gleaned from the taxes of working people. This is called
" income redistribution."

The problem here is that the federal government now owes
about $33 trillion dollars. The USA cannot cover its massive
bills, soit has to borrow.

Joe Biden could not care less. He is in business to buy votes
by promising free stuff to the have-nots. He has absolutely no
plan to reduce poverty through achievement.

America offers more opportunities than any other country, but
you have to seize it. Having babies out of wedlock with no assets
will guarantee you'll be poor. Becoming a substance abuser leads to poverty. So does failing to get an education or refusing to develop a skill.

There are many pathways to avoid economic hardship. The military, community college degrees, working your butt off, and saving
your money. But sitting around waiting for government assistance is a doom loop.

That's the truth. Someone tell Joe Biden." Bill O'Reilly

Except that the transfer payments from government mean they are really
living at a $50K+ level.

Ridiculous. We are utterly and overly generous, which is why there is the
landrush immigration occurring.

That assumes every poor person is getting every transfer payment possible,
including ones that have long wait lists or for which only a few people
qualify, which is ludicrous.

*Every*? You don't need "every" to get your poverty rate under 10%, which
is where we are at.
