I'm not blaming the victim, I'm recognizing the only real solution.

I never said it would be easy, as it certainly wasn't for me. It is however the only method of success, period.

I think we should focus more on why people end up in poverty than trying to "make them not poor". Prevention is likely to be more effective than correction. Things like living wages and abandoning local funding of schools would probably help.
