There are several good opinion pieces on the subject of the War On Poverty at the Washington Post site. Marc Thiessen has some thoughts on Why the Left Is Attacking Paul Ryan, and a nice piece by George Will made roughly the same point a few days ago. Will notes that 50 years ago, Daniel Patrick Moynihan made the same points as Ryan and received roughly the same treatment. Apparently, you can’t discuss facts about poverty and have a serious discussion about policy without inviting accusations of racism. Sacred cow chips indeed!
