The purpose of the bureaucracies that administer these programs is not to “relieve hunger” or “relieve poverty”. It is to perpetuate and grow the bureaucracy itself.

Bingo!

They refuse to get an education. We saw up close & personal a 19 y/o who cannot READ or WRITE ‘CURSIVE’.

I think people are barking up the wrong tree with this cursive thing. It's obsolete. None of the kids around here (and this is a community with a high proportion of Ph.Ds) is learning "cursive". This includes a 14 year old girl I know who just started university. And others who aren't brilliant like her still manage to get and keep jobs. "Cursive" is a red herring.
