We hear alot of talk about Iraq and the War on Terror, but what about the forgotten war? The War on Poverty has been waged for DECADES and cost untold TRILLIONS of dollars. It has only created more poverty than every before, and there is no end in sight. Talk about a "quagmire"! Isn't it time to cut-and-run and finally admit this is a war we cannot hope to win?
There have been no benchmarks set to determine progress, there is no timtable for withdrawl. This is an endless suckhole for federal dollars, and as a taxpayer, I believe we have better things to to with our money.
