What do you believe needs to be done to lower poverty levels in the U.S.?

Answer 1

Shut down walmart
Stop outsourcing
Better our educational system
Fix welfare into a help on your feet not a selfperpetuating lifestyle.
Raise wages.
Stop taxing the poor and middle class hardest.

Answer 2

I think people that own businesses need to make a little less profit and pay a descent wage and union s should no longer exist for they charge too much as wel;l as labor bosses.The cost of things should also come down,because there is such a thing called greed when people want more money than is fair for some thing.The money we use says in God we trust,not in money we trust.The rich get richr and the poor get poorer for these reasons.Big business has a strangle hold on the people and refuses to loosen the noose.People have less insentive to work when they are not paid fairly or treated as family,which is the way they should be treated

Answer 3

To name a few. Create more better paying jobs here in the US for those who can work. Stop sending the work overseas. Offer free job courses for more single parents ( I think they are available to some already) Build up the technology more that our country can thrive.
Problem is there will always be those who waste their resources and will live in poverty.

Answer 4

Stop using money as currency. Let it go back to old western times, back before money, and let people make their own stuff, grow their own food, and all that. People, for the most part, appeared to be a lot nicer to a fellow human back then as well.

Answer 5

National Budget should be focused on economics , education ,and health instead of increasing the budget on security or counter terrorism.Immigrant workers should be controlled.

Answer 6

More emphasis by family on education and the value of hard work.
