What I'm hearing you say is this (correct me if I'm wrong):
You are resistant to early, empirical results that poverty causes negative outcomes for children, and you will require stronger evidence to overcome this resistance.
Fair I suppose, but it says a lot about your politics. And I'll leave it there.
- DanBC 11y agoA more charitable interpretation would be that while poverty is one thing that harms children (and that can be fixed by giving them cash) there's a bunch of other stuff that harms children, and these don't seem to be fixable with cash. EG parents with addiction to alcohol doesn't seem to be something that's fixed with cash hand outs.
