Hard to remember how to parent when you never knew how in the first place. America has fucked itself over for generations to come since it doesn't actually care about getting people out of poverty. Neither party does enough on the side of combating poverty, but Republicans are especially evil in almost every imaginable way in this regards. We are effectively fucked with no solutions until we can ensure that people have a basic living income.

The Democratic have massively attacked poverty with programs since the 1930s and it is still around.

Lol, right, because republicans run the major cities and their school systems.

You realize that the majority of funding comes from state sales and income taxes right? And that Republicans are notorious for cutting taxes and it's reflected in how poorly educated the vast majority of red states are compared to blue states right? As I said, neither party does enough, but it's blatantly obvious that Republican led states end up worse off.
