This problem does not require deep thought. You don't need to be Socrates to figure out that if you drop out of high school and start making babies that you have no inclination to care for, bad things will follow for you and your kids.
No deep thought required...what is required, is a speck of intellectual honesty and genuine concern for helping these people, instead of exploiting them to get votes. That's what is needed, and what we know for sure, is that is asking way too much from your side. Your post here illustrates that perfectly, as you say it's thoughtless and shallow to say to poor people "work hard and make the right decisions, and you probably won't be poor." How the hell else do you avoid poverty, unless you are born with money or marry into it?
So instead of telling poor people that the values embraced by the Tea Party are a spectacularly effective blueprint for escaping poverty, your side paints them as racist. I guess that's what passes for deep thought nowadays.
Obama was in an historically effective position to really do something about this. As usual, he failed miserably.
