Social Welfare Programs do not work

Helping in poverty is not helping people out of poverty. if someone falls into deep pit is the best solution to keep throwing water and food down there until the person dies of old age? or is the most efficient solution to throw down a rope and let 'em get out. the obvious answer is to throw down a rope. today's present day social programs help people in poverty like keeping the person on the bottom of the well. getting out never was easy, this requires work done on the side of the victim who needs to climb up and out. It is easier living at the bottom of the pit. food and water come easy without much effort. but when you leave you will need to get a job and work and live and it may be hard. this system that i propose i believe is the best. it may take decades i do not know how long it will take for people to learn that to become a success story you need to get an education and work hard. the trickle down system may of failed at keeping people out of poverty but it did succeed in removing the incentive to not move up the ladder. I think it will take generations of americans to fully understand. today's social programs are just a band aid on a deeper infection started by FDR and his social programs. points i refute. europe may be moving ahead but not for long. the birth rates are so low that the next generation will be tiny and unable to sustain the economic pace. russia had a holiday for national have sex day, offering prises to those who give birth exactly 9 months from the date. in spain the ratio of children to women is almost 1;2 meaning the nest generation in spain will be half as large. this may or may not be a result of the social programs but the economy is a boom-bust. they are also much more adapted to the price of oil. they do not use as much and are heavy recyclers and users of alternate sources of fuel. their price of gasoline is higher than ours but they are better adapted. Oil does not have a lot to do with the economic forecast it has everything to do with it. i might also add the negative effect of the iraq war on our economy. FDR's programs did not end the great depression. All he did was put the government in a huge defect and the onset of WW2 truly ended the great depression by creating jobs and industries. All the great depression was is that people realised how much money they actually had and not how much they appeared to have borrowed. I also understand a able bodied hardworking poor person generally a contradiction. this is the information age where knowledge is power. An education is imperative. (please do not think that all poor people are there because they flunked out of school or otherwise) unless we want another generation of the poor who are unable to live on their own the government needs to remove the incentives of not making a decent living. if the safety net is removed the careless will fall but everyone else will be more careful, then the careful will teach the newcomers to be careful and so on. but that takes many more than 12 years. the trickle programs were a long term plan but everyone got tiered of waiting and got a democrat elected who undid everything. today's present day social programs do not help the poor escape poverty.
