if the LWNs hadn't created the real estate bubble by forcing fannie may/ freddie mac to give so many sub-prime mortgages,(thanks a whole lot barney frank) maybe there would not be so many homeless.

Ah yes, Libertarians have always been known for their extensive list of solutions to poverty.

And if i recall the Constitutionalist solution is Jesus.

No one has a plan. There is no money to be made fixing/curing it.






I believe it was Ford that wanted to pay his employees enough money to buy the product they made. That plan was the spark that created the American middle class, the most powerful nation in the world and unimaginable wealth.

To say that fixing/curing poverty has no financial gain is the height of ignorance or greed.

You dont hear democrats saying much about the homeless now becuase they realize that THE HOMELESS DONT VOTE

The democrats only mention the middle class now since they vote

If it paid so well why isn't anyone trying AND succeeding in fixing it? And your only example is one from 100 years ago?


I am not surprised your mind is boggled.

Because half the political decision making apparatus in this country has decided concentrating wealth is more important than generating prosperity for the whole country.
