The War On Poverty

I remember Lyndon Johnson's War On Poverty. It was one of the landmark pieces of legislation in his administration. We all cheered at the time knowing full well that our major cities would be cleaned up, kids would have a chance in life and jobs would abound.

To date $22 trillion dollars and counting is being flushed down the toilet with no end in site.

The way I figure the only way to bring our major cities, ruled by Democrats, out of poverty would be to institute a new program. Hey, how about reparations for Blacks. That should work.
