Clinton's 'welfare reform' increased deep poverty and left families who couldn't find work without a safety net — setting the nation on a course toward record levels of economic inequality. Read more in this compelling article from @voxdotcom: vox.com/2016/6/20/11789988/c…
Image ID: A quote in red text reads "If the goal of welfare reform was to get rid of welfare, we succeeded. If the goal of was to get rid of poverty, we failed." The quote is attributed to Timothy Smeeding, Professor of Public Affairs at the University of Wisconsin.

Project Turnkey shows that hotels are a good option for housing people exiting homelessness because they are relatively easy to convert, have private bathrooms, and are designed to be both welcoming and durable. streetroots.org/news/2022/06…

Universal basic income is not just about reducing poverty by increasing access to physical resource needs like food. UBI helps those who already have enough by increasing their stability. Knowing that no matter what, you're going to be okay, provides a real feeling of security.
