Poverty exists because society choses to allow it to exist.

Poverty is essential to maintain a vast pool of cheap, desperate labor. Cheap labor is the life blood of Capitalism. You can't "eradicate" one without doing away with the other. This is why the capitalist Democrats couldn't bring themselves to pass a $15/hour wage.

It looks like the goal is to maintain the Status Quo. To keep the rich getting richer. To keep the poor getting poorer.

Well Washington State is already looking to that, king5.com/article/news/polit… Apparently the MAGAots and the Center-Right Neocons/Liberals are afraid of this, and do hope it passes in my home state, this would Tax the Low & Middle Class much less than the top 25% of Incomes.

Good luck, unfortunately the poor will always be with us.

This is why we need #UBI but people often resist change even good change
