@blackrepublican What is the Republican anti poverty program?

— Touré (@Toure) January 14, 2014

To call "jobs" an anti poverty program is like sayin "they need more money." No kidding they need jobs. Also: many already have jobs plural.

Many in poverty are working poor w two jobs. So "jobs" is an ineffective anti poverty program.

As opposed to extending unemployment benefits, which has proven to do wonders for our economy.

@Toure @blackrepublican We call it "work."

Maybe Touré’s onto something. Maybe we’ve been going about this all wrong!

Heh.

Seriously, though, has Touré ever even read a pamphlet on basic economics?
