I so hate the phrase "war on poverty." It tends to de facto turn poor people into The Enemy in the mind's of far too many people.



That would be another way of lowering the percentage of people living in poverty.


Yes, please, just take us all out and shoot us for our war crimes of failing to be as wildly successful as we would like to be.

(Please don't tell me this needs a sarcasm tag. If you can't tell in this case, then I think it's utterly hopeless.)
