Ryan has "a better way" to combat poverty, but his plan would reduce the social safety net
". A better way to fight poverty". Think Progress: Ryan plan announced "Agenda decided" to cut the social safety net of the States - Chamber Chairman Paul Ryan (R-WI) has its alleged plan announced to combat poverty, reports entitled Think Progress that Ryan "has become the leader in the field of cross-Republican lawmakers against social programs ", and that the current proposal of the plan aims to reduce increase the benefits and requirements programs for the receiver to work" on the idea fixes that people abuse the benefits. "
Ryan made a speech on the plan A Better Way entitled a center for drug rehabilitation in Anacostia, a poor neighborhood and black largely of Washington, DC, as part of an enhanced uptake of Republican priorities in the house this week.
Ryan became the leader in the crusade against social programs Republican lawmakers. he was responsible in the past made poverty a "cultural problem" in "inner cities", stating that black men are "not even think about the work, or to learn the value and work culture." also argued that the marriage healing of poverty, non-governmental programs, and refused to allow anyone who testify really bad at hearings on poverty. It seemed to make a copy of the racially charged rhetoric in March, saying it was wrong to trapped people in poverty to refer to as "customers".
Despite the change in the focus of his speech, Ryan appears to have been determined in the policy. Ryan plans earlier poverty on the federal safety net have focused, and the new proposal seems equally obsessed with the idea that people abuse the benefits. The proposal provides that "for low-income families, not always pay to work the" conservative theory for some time echo that the poor do not choose to find a job, because it is more lucrative to count on state benefits.
Consistent with this philosophy, the plan provides for a political mob to make it much harder for people to have access to federal programs: the needs of demanding work for food stamps, housing assistance, or money well; Eliminating Conservatives believe that the benefits are irregular payments; Cut the Social Security; eliminate funding for education in early childhood Lifeline Head Start; Siegel certain tax credits for low-income families; and also allows states to cut some programs, as it suits them.

Right Media Planning echo myths and bad Shaming Ryan
Myth: The war on poverty was a mistake
Map of War asserts Ryan on poverty, has left the poverty rate today "is no better than it was in 1966," says Ryan, that the federal government despite pressures of the poor to help since the 1960s with the war against poverty has spent billions of dollars the country, and poverty has not changed. Ryan based his plan on the idea that the war against poverty not. (Emphasis added; citations omitted) from "a better way to fight poverty":
The American dream is the idea that no matter who you are or where you come from, if you work hard and give your place, you will succeed. But for many people today is that simply is not true. Thirty-four percent of Americans are raised in the bottom fifth of the income scale still there stuck as adults. In fact, when people moving up the ladder of opportunity, prices remained very stable over the past generations. In this sense, Americans today are no better than they were before the war on poverty in 1964 began.

Today, 13 federal agencies, more than 80 federal programs work, food, housing, health care, training, education, energy, and money for low-income Americans. Approximately one third of the US population receives services from at least one wellness program. But even if the federal government billions of taxpayer dollars, the official poverty rate has (14.8%) spent in 2014 thus has for these programs in the past five decades, was no better than it was in 1966 (14, 7 %), while many of these programs started. In other words, while these programs to deal with people with poverty have helped have helped people out of poverty not as President Ronald Reagan summed up the situation. "The federal government declared war on poverty, and poverty won." [Work tasks on poverty, equality of opportunity and upward mobility ", a better way to fight poverty", 6/7/16]

He also noted that the growth of economic inequality - among other factors - has increased on the programs and make pressure poverty rates are kept artificially high, which makes them seem less effective than they actually are. But in spite of these pressures, the official poverty rate from the war has been reduced to poverty programs and more precise measurements showed that the poverty rate has halved since the mid-1960s, to pick up again during the Great Recession:

Being Cliff" Ryan poverty The plan refers the right "good abyss - his" call myth of the media, which means that some of the beneficiaries of programs against poverty career opportunities are denied because of the increase in net wages would actually reduce net profit by reducing their profits. Ryan also claims that the current system of arms favored not to work, while state and local governments encourage people to keep in poverty so that they can get more federal money to support (emphasis added):
Under the current system, states and other service providers often lose money when someone leaves the well - being at work. In other words, they are better, where the beneficiary is in fact not successful, can not even make financial sense for someone who is good -. I know I work harder, because both end up losing benefits.

For low - income families who can not always pay low for the work - income families often many kinds of taxes and benefits, how to obtain assistance with food, shelter and the cost of day care assistance with medical expenses. or cash payments to supplement income from work.

It is "good abyss -.

"It is only care malpractice" economic columnist be for the New York Times Eduardo Porter conservative persistent myths discredited fighting program emergency government against poverty ", also commonly referred to - be" laziness and waste under low-income Americans, and that the reduction in aid to the poor actually reduces promote poverty. On October 20, presented Porter that "social reform" in the 1990s, said supporters would reduce poverty, had little effect on the poverty rate in the United States. He also stressed the research from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the World Bank "no systematic evidence that cash transfer programs work discouraged" found and that cash is "usually not wasted" by the recipients. Porter concluded that attempts social programs "reform" were driven and gives low-income Americans during the 2008-2009 recession worse than in previous economic crises of myths and stereotypes:
A few ideas are so ingrained in the American popular imagination as the belief that government aid to the poor promote only bad behavior.
The proposal is loved especially by the conservative end of the spectrum, brilliantly articulated by Charles Murray, the American Enterprise Institute, increased due the good of the youth of "bastardy" to unemployment.

Today, almost 20 years after Clinton signed a law that federal law benefits for low-income families is stopped with children, the argument solidified into a fundamental principle of the influence of social policy, not only in the US but worldwide.
And yet, to a significant degree, it is not right. The actual experience of the richest in the world in some of the poorest regions of the world countries that cash assistance suggesting can be of great help for the poor. And free them of what President Ronald Reagan calls the memorable "cobweb dependence" - also known as the arms to force their fate - not a panacea for social ills of their supporters claim.

Myth: The marriage dissolves poverty

Les deux parties doivent reconnaître que le mariage, en tant pour qu'institution élever des enfants ne sont pas toujours possible.
