Existing programs do not go far enough and do not solve anything. You may enjoy throwing other people's money at problems and not solving them, but most of us don't.

The goal of existing programs (some of us are involved in our communities---apparently Kevin can't say the same) is to change the structure of poverty and address larger societal issues. Such as people in every social class who are financially, emotionally, and mentally under- or unprepared for parenthood. No one is doing anyone a favor by having children.

It's mostly, if not always poor people who are financially unprepared for parenthood. Apparently, you are not actually involved in your community or you'd know that. As someone who represents children in our juvenile deprived courts on a regular basis, I have not seen very many middle class or higher families have their children taken away because of abuse or neglect. It does happen, but it is rare. I'm pretty used to seeing children taken from homes with no running water or electricity, and it's never just one child. These dumb bastards tend to have 3-4, at least one is special needs, probably due to neglect. Their rights get terminated and they go on to breed again.
Your apparent solution, not having any more children is about the dumbest thing I've ever seen. It works great until it leads to the extinction of the species. What of your programs and services are actually making a substantial impact on generational poverty? (in a positive way as most of these programs tend to encourage and enable it)
