Like everything else in your barely coherent posts, you think of everything in black in white. there needs to be a mixed approach here over a long period of time.You think low taxes got us here? and raising them can get us out?
Again another vague explanation. At least I'm clear and upfront.No one has defined what they mean by "poor"
what this "mixed" approach would/should be...
what is "fair" or who decides what "fair" is...
How these arbitrary min-wages numbers are reached... why not make min-wage $30hr? seriously, why not?
It's as if none of you realize the government is in debt and can't afford to care for people... Literally it can't afford to do the things you want it to do...
We can't afford, war, we can't afford entitlements, we can't afford corporate welfare, any of it.
shyts gonna be tough, but it's how it has to be...
then how is the federal reserve just casually misplacing trillions of dollars?
people who can't afford to do things usually look at where their money is going with more scrutiny, much like you've demonstrated you do in your posts.

Just for clarity
- To me "privatize" means The Government doesn't get the money in the first place. To most privatize means The Government collects taxes and contracts out rather than having Government employees do whatever the alleged service is.
- To say wipe out social spending is misleading because presently about half the social spending is done without Government and much more was done privately before the Welfare/Warfare State took so much out of donaters' pockets.
-- Individuals' donations to individuals (e.g. a person loses everything in a fire and directly receives money, clothes, furniture, etc. directly from other persons).
Private donaters have a history of helping people change their lives for the better, while Government has a vested interest in a permanent underclass.

The Government isnt taking care of social spending. In truth, The Government keeps most of such alleged funds to themselves in the form of corruption, bloated Government staffs and property, and similar diverted expenditures. This lost $$ doesn't surprise me at all.
As long as they promise liberals free sh*t though they will be kept in office.

wouldn't 9 trillion dollars stolen from tax payers be a more pressing issue than 40 billion in food stamps that are being cut?

Is it too difficult for you to figure out a mixed approach means to raise taxes to more effective levels while reducing spending growth over the course of the next few decades? Really?
The smart dumb epidemic is reaching all-time highs in this country...
When there is justice there is no need for charity.
They are both issues, why address only one and not both? We can walk and chew bubblegum.wouldn't 9 trillion dollars stolen from tax payers be a more pressing issue than 40 billion in food stamps that are being cut?

difficult? no.
But I'd rather you clearly state what you mean rather than have to assume we are thinking/referencing the same thing.
If that's stupid than I'm guilty.

"justice" is extremely subjective(something i'm sure you'll contest).
Charity is true compassion.
Force is not.
Your inability to see this is beyond frustrating.
Forcing people to do something isn't moral or righteous in any way.
Its a violation of individual liberty.
Freedom from force and coercion means nothing to you guys does it?

I clearly care more about poor communities than someone who is in favor of defunding them and raising taxes on them year after year.
Nice try though?

You've got to put some of these guys on ignore, it's not worth it.
