[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] We are already paying for it--in social welfare programs and prisons and crime and lost potential. We can pay now or we can pay later. The benefits of a strong, healthy, educated, gainfully employed population accrue to all of us. [/quote] The paradigm needs to change. I don't know how--but I know that it will not be solved with money. All the money spent since the War on Poverty began and we see very little improvement. In fact, it may be worse.[/quote] I actaully agree with both of you 1. Its cheaper to fix the poverty problem earlier on 2. Our current solutions aren't working mainly spending more money in low income schools, and headstart programs 3. I'm open to creative soluations that might actually work We need to ensure headstart is actually staffed with competent people. [/quote]
