First question, do you think the majority of Americans care about poor people?

Second question, if the American government is needed to help poor people why doesnt it eliminate poverty? It has more than enough money.

[/ QUOTE ]It's not the elimination of poverty that is the governments aim, it's the attempt to lessen acts of desperation. And have everyone that benefits form that attempt to pay for, and have a say in how it is accomplished.
