I don't think America, or any major western nation for that matter has EVER won a war against poverty.
Every single case of a politician trying to solve the homelessness or poverty problem has resulted in a drastic failure from what I read.
Correct me if I'm wrong. I just can't think of any situation in modern times (or even in the past two centuries) where addressing poverty was actually successful.
