Well, if our States Legislators and Fed Gov't don't want to Force Companies to Spend the $ to Improve and Upgrade Equiptment?
and the past 4 Presidents have Not been able to do that
Then We have systems that were designed for 50% less Population than we have now..
Diverting Too much $ to Be helping the Poor is one the Problems
Once you become Known to provide more for the Poor , than were they come from? They will come to you, like Bee's to Honey
and you will be stuck taking care of them..

Helping the poor is lifting them out of poverty, not ensuring they will always be in a needy position. Helping the poor, however, starts in the schools and the neighborhoods where they grow up. Having been poor myself, I can tell you that even the poor want to work.
Oppression of the poor, however, has benefits to those in the upper class. Because the poor do not vote. They live complicated lives and every day is spent keeping the roof over their head and utilities on. Despair which is unrelenting will lead to alcohol or drug abuse because our bodies and minds can only take stress of this type for so long. Their solution is cheap and easy to find in the ghetto, drugs are cheap and the alcohol they drink is priced just right for them to have access to. How many people do you know who drink wine that costs under 2.00 or beer that is cheaper than milk?
Oppression of the poor is by design. Poverty is a weapon to silence an entire class of people who would otherwise vote on the democratic ticket - the people's party.
The poor are victims not scavengers. The scavengers are in $10,000 suits, manipulating the system and transferring wealth into their possession via deregulation and lobbying.
Follow the money. The poor people in the world are not the problem.
