        It’s not the economy. The U.S. has one of the highesr production rates in the world, and one of the highest GDPs in the world.

        The money is absolutely there in the economy to make ends meet for us all, the economy is more than healthy enough for it. But that wealth doesn’t go to us, it goes to the 1%.

        It’s the distribution of wealth/ownership that’s the problem.

        Some of them yes others may not have the intellectual/mental capability or physical issues that prevent it as well. Most people who want and work to get out of poverty will get to the lower middle class which is a better life than 99% of humans have ever had.
