Nothing will change without a mass uprising of the people. The corporate ruling elite are very satisfied with control of the system as well as having underlings to attack and subjugate. Their is no complex problem nor mystery here. It is the American elitist, racist, capitalistic system performing at maximum efficiency.

America’s concept of our own poverty has been determined by opportunistic politicians, and kept under control by mainstream media, to the degree that even the more progressive among us rarely even acknowledge our poverty, much less investigate it. America doesn’t know about the significant success of welfare programs before “reform” (some 80% voluntarily quit welfare in under 5 years, with long-term recipients being those with serious physical/mental health care needs) or about the horrendous impact of welfare “reform”. They also seem to have no concept on the impact of workfare policies on the general economy/wages. Any discussion is usually limited to some vague concept to somehow “move people from welfare to work”, from the standpoint that poverty is social deviance rather than an economic issue, based on the bizarre idea that poverty is merely a “lifestyle choice”.
“Let ‘em pull themselves up by their bootstraps.” 

Americans in poverty need food and medical care, not slogans. But as long as the general population remains unaware of the causes, depth and range of US poverty today, this discussion won’t even begin.

The core problem is attitude. Society is putting young people in jail/prison at a rate of $30000 to $40000 per year per person. After being released what have we gotten for our money. More of the same.
Teen agers are young adults seeking their place in society. Many of the kids who drop out have mental problems,lack of desire and should be in a technical job training by the time they are in the 9th grade. All kids are not college material and some do not have the intelligence to ever be much better off than minimum wage people but they need to be productive.

ITS PART OF THE GLOBAL ELITE POPULATION CONTROL,THAT WHY NOT A THING WILL CHANGE, UNTIL WE THE PEOPLE TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY FROM THIS GLOBALIST CRIMINALS IN THE WHITE HOUSE.
