THE TRUMP PRESIDENCY

way to answer the question.

At least Cars, Sally and Mark can answer it.

I think it is definitely learned.

Here's another question to ponder: is welfare racist?

I don't mean racist against whites, I'm asking what the net effect of welfare has been on the lower income family structure. Has it helped, or did it increase dysfunctionality and lead to the drug/gang violence that is epidemic in poor communities?

Initially, welfare was a good idea to help low income families to help make ends meet. Back then, people had pride, and wanted to stand on their own two feet, so they got off welfare as soon as they were able to.
However, over the years, it seems that people who were raised on welfare,
grew up seeing that people didn't have to go to work at low paying jobs, and could just receive welfare instead. So yes, those raised on welfare, stayed on welfare, and in those cases with plenty of idle time on their hands, it could/did lead to drug/gang violence.
IMO.
