A Study of American Attitudes about Work, Economic Opportunity, and the Social Safety Net
This article by John Halpin and Karl Agne explores reasons behind poverty. It investigates large socio-structural barriers as well as more personal safety net impediments. The authors argue that we need to pay attention to all factors because improvements in one aspect but failures in other dimensions are unlikely to reduce poverty. Here are some guideline questions to get you thinking more carefully about the topic.
Can poverty be reduced by improving jobs, wages, and education?
What are safety nets? Are they important in reducing poverty?
Is it more difficult for people to stay afloat today than perhaps 40-50 years ago?
