Typical sweeping generalization smear from the left, when they've exhausted their intellectual ammunition, presuming they had any for starters.The "war" was a failure. Perpetuating poverty was not accomplished, rather poverty itself has become institutionalized. Obama is doing his level best to extend this trend by championing the welfare state at the cost of the only thing that has ever proved effective in creating wealth; the free market.
The typical right wing mantra...social Darwinism...survival of the richest.

If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.
President John F. Kennedy
One burning question:
If the war on poverty actually succeeded, why are there 91 million people sitting at home right now not working?
Oh yeah that's right. You'd rather build the fire for the man and keep him warm for a day, not teach him to build it and be warm for the rest of his life.
You cannot help the poor by being one of them yourself.
But we don't have less poverty.Government Action Is Literally The Only Reason We Have Less Poverty Now Than In 1967
Everything you need to know about the war on poverty
Try to 'grasp' this reality. We don't live in a vacuum, or a static nation. Without those programs the poverty rate would be much higher.
So the only way of earning a living is being a CEO?!?!?!?!
.
You such a moron! -- it's not about simply earning a living. It's about having a job with a pay that keeps up with productivity growth. And modern economy creates very few such jobs. And it would not create any more of them even if everyone earns a PhD.
The market economy creates an ever more unequal income distribution, and education won't change that trend. The only way to fix the outcome would be more income redistribution by the government.
Why , are you wearing cement shoes? Are you a plant?
Quit the bullshit and relocate where the jobs are.

You can only help them by teaching them how to free themselves from the shackles of poverty.

What makes you think it is even possible? You think people work at Walmart because they are to lazy to go in college?
Imagine for a second that everyone in this country got college degree. Who do you think then would work at Walmart and McDonald's?

The cons greed, and creation of the banana republic is the cause of poverty.LBJ's "War on Poverty" has been a dismal failure

I never said anything about attending college or getting a degree. I never went to college. Instead, I used my worth ethic to secure a job in a field that I liked. Then I educated myself as much as possible about the job and developed my skills in performing the job. I worked at that job for 20 years, and then I went out on my own and started my own business in that same field. I owned that company for 18 years and used it to support my family and better myself and improve my lifestyle. I sold my company last year and made enough money from it to support me and my family in my retirement years.
If I can do it, so can you and everyone else. You don't need a college education to pull yourself up by the bootstraps and make your life better. All it takes is a little hard work and a lot of determination.
LBJ declared the war and Nixon, Reagan Bush 1 and 2 were terrible generals in it

No, you are wrong -- we can't all become business owners. Only some of us can.
It's like a race -- yes, you can beat others by working harder, but there is not enough room on the podium to accommodate every participant. No matter how hard every participant tries, only very few of them end up as winners.
