Poverty is necessary. Because without it, we couldn't have a poverty program. And the poverty program has the right answer. You can't just give poor people money. The poor people will just go out and buy food and clothes and pay rent and junk like that.
Poor people have to have jobs.
But, the only jobs open are in the administration offices of the poverty program. Twelve clerks to every poor. Now, the poverty program is running out of money. It only proves that poverty is expensive.
