      No, @philipbrich was right, you have the causation backwards. Poverty causes broken families, not the other way around. @TPCarney

      The idea the poor just have to get married to be un-poor is both wrong and an underhanded way of shaming poor people. @philipbrich @TPCarney

    @TPCarney @SethAMandel Funny how poverty didn't seem to weaken families, including black families, until the 1960s

      @TPCarney if there is one thing Jeb! knows it is how to pull yourself up by your own bootstraps. Man was raised in dire poverty, overcame it

    @TPCarney @notmyname1939 Yeah. Because broken families have proven to be sooooo good for the black community.

    @TPCarney Bush is right. Progs pissed because their policies damage families, which increases poverty and crime.

      @JanVanGilder @TPCarney In his view, economic disadvantage gives license to fail forever. Like the vagaries of weather: "It got poor on me".

      @TPCarney @McCormackJohn Obviously poor people DO need stronger families. It's tough, I know, but indispensable.

      Slave owners broke up the black family. Hard to put it back together again, like Humpty Dumpty. @SteveWCarlson

      @SaCDav Many American families have been broken up. They can be restored, and should be. No excuses. America is a good place for family.

      Isn't it too late for that? Today's "baby daddies" don't want to marry their "baby mammas". Prefer 2 have many "baby mammas".@SteveWCarlson

      @SaCDav They're pretending they have families. In America you can. But you have to want it.
