The right has its own version of political correctness. It’s just as stifling.

I dunno, if you work 60+ and struggle for necessities in most cases you probably made some poor life decisions (assuming there were no medical issues).

For example, I'll never understand women that make multiple children with a useless man and no job skills. That might be the primary cause of poverty in the US.

Circumstances change. Just because they can't support a family now doesn't mean that they weren't able to in the past. However, even if you do lose your job or something like that, it's not like you can just get rid of your children, so they'll probably be doomed into poverty as well because they won't be able to afford good education.

The question is, why should there be poverty in the first place? There are billionaires who are never going to spend even close to what they have, why hoard all of that money?

That's the thing about left wingers like yourself, you focus on situations where people may have lost their job, maybe health issues, and they could no longer support a family.

What I'm telling you is a lot of women start a family with a useless man and no job skills and that's a significant cause of poverty. Statistically many single mothers don't even have a high school diploma.

Wealth redistribution doesn't solve poor life decisions, it enables that behavior and eventually you have a country going broke. I mean poverty could go down drastically if people just made better life decisions and didn't rely on government to provide for them. But hey, that's just my right wing logic.
