abstract: 'We present a 50-year historical perspective of the nation''s antipoverty
|
||||
|
||||
efforts, describing the evolution of policy during four key periods
|
||||
|
||||
since 1965. Over this half-century, the initial heavy reliance on cash
|
||||
|
||||
income support to poor families has eroded; increases in public support
|
||||
|
||||
came largely in the form of in-kind (e.g., Food Stamps) and tax-related
|
||||
|
||||
(e.g., the Earned Income Tax Credit) benefits. Work support and the
|
||||
|
||||
supplementation of earnings substituted for direct support. These shifts
|
||||
|
||||
eroded the safety net for the most disadvantaged in American society.
|
||||
|
||||
Three poverty-related analytical developments are also described. The
|
||||
|
||||
rise of the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM)taking account of noncash
|
||||
|
||||
and tax-related benefitshas corrected some of the serious weaknesses of
|
||||
|
||||
the official poverty measure (OPM). The SPM measure indicates that the
|
||||
|
||||
poverty rate has declined over time, rather than being essentially flat
|
||||
|
||||
as the OPM implies. We also present snapshots of the composition of the
|
||||
|
||||
poor population in the United States using both the OPM and the SPM,
|
||||
|
||||
showing progress in reducing poverty overall and among specific
|
||||
|
||||
socioeconomic subgroups since the beginning of the War on Poverty.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, we document the expenditure levels of numerous antipoverty
|
||||
|
||||
programs that have accompanied the several phases of poverty policy and
|
||||
|
||||
describe the effect of these efforts on the level of poverty. Although
|
||||
|
||||
the effectiveness of government antipoverty transfers is debated, our
|
||||
|
||||
findings indicate that the growth of antipoverty policies has reduced
|
||||
|
||||
the overall level of poverty, with substantial reductions among the
|
||||
|
||||
elderly, disabled, and blacks. However, the poverty rates for children,
|
||||
|
||||
especially those living in single-parent families, and families headed
|
||||
|
||||
by a low-skill, low-education person, have increased. Rates of deep
|
||||
|
||||
poverty (families living with less than one-half of the poverty line)
|
||||
|
||||
for the nonelderly population have not decreased, reflecting both the
|
||||
|
||||
increasing labor market difficulties faced by the low-skill population
|
||||
|
||||
and the tilt of means-tested benefits away from the poorest of the poor.'
