fitting the poor into the econ

             In the article "Fitting the Poor into the Economy" Herbert Gans provides a
             number of antidotes to poverty which i fell will help sturgling familys and
             One of the many atiodotes Herbet Gans sugguest is to provide
             fulltime enployment rather then providing welfare. I feel this is an excellent
             sugguestion toward ending poverty in the U.S. Instead of people sitting back
             collecting welfare checks they would be out earning thier money while
             becoming an active particaten in society. I also strongly feel that this idea
             alone would help end the on going trend of recieving welfare pasted on from
             Another antidote Herbet Gans provides is a more generous welfare
             system. This antidote I strongly disargee with. I feel that providing more

             will pay for everything for us?" I feel if people are recieving welfare they
             should'nt be recieving to much so that they will have the mind set that
             "the goverment is'nt going to pay for everything. I need to get a job to
             support myself." This is the attitude i feel someone on welfare should have

             poverty problem that surround us. One is to open up more deptment malls
             throughout the inner city. This will provide more work oppertuities
             for people in the "Ghettos" were there is a lack of jobs. Plus many people
             living in proverty lack a college and sometimes a high school education
             which makes it dificult to find job oppertunities. This will open up many job
             opertunities for people living in proverty which will hopefully be a steping
             stone for further and higher paying enployment.
             Another idea is to provde free trade schooling for all people who
