But is it
really poverty? There are tons of entitlement programs available that can literally pull folks out of poverty, almost automatically. Welfare, food stamps, Section 8 housing. It's
all there for those who truly want to get out of poverty, and make something of themselves.
I know someone who grew up in the ghetto, and he constantly tells me "there's
always money in the 'hood. Always." It's what those in poverty DO with their money, is what can be debated.
