If you want to get into details lbj's Great society started the welfare state, and we have the exact same percentage of poor today as we did 50 plus years ago. Look it up use any statistics you want it's the truth. Giving money away does not help the poor.
However maybe if you give them an additional education and skills to get a better job that might help. I'm not talking about the unfortunate who are sick or do not have proper psychological brains to work.
