Is poverty the common denominator of every major social problem?

Poverty isn’t always a cause, or an effect, but it’s always somewhere in the math problem.

Crime
Drugs
Children born out of wedlock
Homelessness
Blight
Urban decay
Broke municipalities
Crumbling infrastructure
Shitty schools
Fast Tax
Vape shops
Nail salons
Dogs and cats living together
Mass hysteria.

We’re circling the drain. And the bums are still shooting up on the corner of Baronne and Calliope.

Cheers.

This more than poverty imo

Go to new orleans east or some poor fishing towns full of viets

They are poor as shite but strong family units and wonderful people

Pretty much. If you compare races within different ranges of income, you'll see very little differences outside of outliers. The dumb and poor of all colors are the worst.

In the modern age, there're no consequences for poverty. So why not just frick off and do whatever I want? I don't have to worry about how to actually feed, house, and clothe a family. I don't even have to raise them or educate them. The government does all of this for me. All. Of. It. So why should I give a frick or try hard?

Go to wealthy communities and the divorce rate is high but very little crime and the kids are highly educated and successful.

Scarcity is the root of all human problems, outside of disease.

Wonderful people in strong family units won’t be, or won’t be for long at all if they ever are.

Mental illness
Drug use

Both have an impact on people no matter what class they are a part of.
