Are there any cons in poverty?

Where do cons get their ideas on poverty?

  • they talk A LOT about it, yet rarely ever citing their strange ideas? I often see them talk about how welfare and social programs hold people down and create more poverty... yet nations with social programs almost always have lower poverty rates that those that do not? how is this possible? if it increases poverty, then shouldn't these nations have the highest rates in the WORLD? and how poverty was transient before social programs? no cycle of poverty without social programs, right? but...AGAIN nations with few social programs OBVIOUSLY have huge portions of their population who have lived in GENERATIONAL POVERTY FOR MANY YEARS? where do you even come up with this stuff? do you have any actual facts to back it up?

  • Answer:

    US census report. From your lack of facts I see you haven't been paying much attention to Greece and Spain.

It's just talking points. Liberals have them too. No less poorly defined, either. The truth is, poverty exists because we've created and upheld a dead economic system that only exists, indeed thrives, via poverty. Continuation of the system is a continuation of poverty (now globally). And both conservatives and liberals are diehard members of this dead system.

And these countries have less poverty because they reward people for being poor? Do you even realize how stupid your argument is here?

How Would I Know

Well it is either poverty for all or a few. Look at Greece , France Spain. Which would you prefer? You live in a fantasy world.

If your poor, make money. If you don't have a job, find one. If you want a house or a car but can't afford it, then you don't get one. Don't look to the government to give you what you want, earn it.

You do know, every nation determines its own poverty rate What the US considers poverty, is considered middle class and upper middle class, even in some european nations Heck, China considers poverty, anyone making less than $200 a year
