Poverty is a lack of money, no more no less. So, by definition, giving poor people more money and resources would solve poverty. But also, I am somewhat shocked you actually tweeted this out loud. What's delusion is you thinking blaming poverty on drug addiction was a hot take.
I mean, to simultaneously argue that folks asking for the 70% marginal tax rate CLEARLY haven't spent time with poor people by proclaiming poor people are poor because they do drugs is the height ridiculousness.
But also, are you REALLY tryna argue that rich folks don't do drugs? That rich folks don't go on benders? Like, that's your argument? Difference between poor folks and rich folks who do this is, get this, money.
