And welfare has done nothing to correct the problem. After 70 years of new-deal policies and liberal rule. New Orleans residents are worse off, on average, than the rest of the country.
I'm arguing that welfare doesn't cause poverty, but continues it, in that it doesn't work toward the solution, but acts more as a payout to buy votes. If the welfare system worked, are these the results?
