I'm not denying that it might help people, it just seems like a half-assed bandaid solution given the breadth of the problem.

If you have an idea for an app that will directly tackle poverty and hopelessness, I think there are a lot of people willing to listen.
This isn't an attempt to bandaid over the whole problem. It's an attempt to address a minor contributing factor that is much more tractable than hopelessness.
