In 1964, Lyndon Johnson declared war on poverty. I wonder how that war is working out.

Actually it got nothing done and anyone that thinks the war on poverty accomplished anything is a fool. Somewhere between 22 and 30 trillion dollars has been spent on the war on poverty and the poverty rate is virtually the same as it was then. If you think that is accomplishing something then you have to be an i***t.
