[quote=Anonymous]Back to the subject at hand: "The report claims that in 2013, 14.5 percent of Americans were poor. Remarkably, that's almost the same poverty rate as in 1967, three years after the War on Poverty started. How can that be? How can government spend $9,000 per recipient and have no effect on poverty? The answer is - it can't." 50 Trillion / 320,000,000 is $156,250 per person spent on eliminating poverty in the last 50 years. What could you do with $156K ? [/quote]
