How does this narrative fit in with the liberal ideals of raising minimum wage, healthcare for all and higher tax rates on the ultra rich? Sounds to me it's liberals trying to get people out of poverty.

You mean in places like the more rural parts of Georgia where as much as 10% of the population in some counties is on SSI, and billboards advertising lawyers promoting it pepper those roadways no one in town paid for the laying of?

'Sounds to me it's liberals trying to get people out of poverty.'

boom. Right there. 'Sounds like'.

Go take a quick look at somewhere like San Fran, LA or any ghetto type area
See all the policies made to help people?
Welfare, child payments, free schools, free clinics, disability, free needles, affirmative action, $10-15 minimum wages ... It's basically 80% of everything liberals wanted..

Sounds like it'll work..on paper.
Like giving extra welfare if a single mother gets pregnant... Sounds great until suddenly you've suddenly got 30 new kids on a street being raised by 10 single mothers..

Reality and paper aren't the same.

So let those people starve?

SF & LA aren't ghettos, they're amongst THE richest cities in the USA and contain ghettos within them, a consequence of their own success. Those who couldn't make it or poor people from elsewhere seeking job opportunities end up in them, and lack the resources to get out or don't because of family, etc.

bang on the money. We grew up in a mining town after all the mines closed and nothing much replaced them.
Lib and conservative attitudes were (are) night and day on getting yourself out of poverty.

#1 rule is figuring out where you're going wrong and stop doing it.
Never seen a poor lib do that, never seen a preppy lib tell them to do that.

You mean like JFK and LBJ did with food stamps and putting shoes on their feet?
