I'm not totally ok with the first part of your question...poor people are sometimes in that state because of bad decisions made through lack of education...I think just giving money without guidance doesn't help them in the long run....

@Convivial the keyword there is sometimes. Most poverty isn't caused by bad decisions, so should all poor people be told what to do with their money because a small number needs that?

@Convivial Very true. Studies have been done where they give homeless guys a place to live, transportation,
and a job. The average was 6 months before they were on the streets again.
A large majority of these guys do NOT want any responsibilities. They are "Their own man"
I know this because I worked among them for a few years doing what I had to do to get out of
debt. I was not homeless, but I was close. I eventually achieved the American dream with no
help from anyone except my wonderful wife.
