I agree with the former, but not the latter since what I'm saying is
quite simple.  If we're trying to solve the problem of "working poor",
there are essentially 2 proposals in this thread:

1.) Give the working poor a subsidy that the market does not demand in
exchange for doing the same thing they've always done, or

2.) Give the poor the infrastructure to raise their own pay by raising
their marketable skills and thus no longer depending on the government
subsidies.

My argument is that #2 is superior as it weens the working poor off
gov't assistance.  That is, it teaches them to live independent of
government subsidies rather than depend on them.

That's pretty simple and direct.  Which of these solutions do you
favor?  Or maybe you have other proposals?
