These professional providers ask which problems are fund bl. So we have created a commodity out of poor people where there are perverse incentives for maintaining people in poverty. We wonder why it expands. And so its important for us to recognize that this control has to change. But in addressing poverty, its important that we tend to make the mistake of generalizing about poor people. Not everybody is poor for the same reason. I identify four categories of pure people.
