The World Bank defines poverty as earning $1/day
Minimum wage earners in the US earn >40X as much as the worlds poorest
There are >320 million who earn $1 or less per day, greater than the entire US population

Can you name one democratic program that has succeeded in getting people off the poverty roles? I'll give you the best one - capitalism. No one single man engineered economic system has gotten more people out of poverty than this. This country is a shining example of that. You make it sound that the lower income and poor are new. The poor have been among us for centuries. The cure in my view - Freedom and Hard Work. But you will never hear from a lib that pulling yourself up by the bootstrap is a strategy because it stresses individualty. And we know that individuality among Dems won't garner them political power. It is sad that people can be used so brazenly and get so little in return.

Also, look at the FairTax if you want a solution that will put more money in the hands of the "poor" that you feel so sorry for........
