Описание: Excerpt from The Road Upward: Three Hundred Years of Public Welfare in New York State We have freed ourselves from many of the prejudices and shortcomings of the past, but many more still remain with us. Our predecessors have much to teach us; we are inspired by their achievements and sobered by their failures. We can follow those paths they blazed that lead toward progress, wecan try to avoid the pitfalls that lie along the way. A rich tradition has been handed down to our generation, and we should try to rediscover it and to cherish it as a torch lighting the way to further progress. We are justly proud of the progressive tradition built up in the State Board of Social Welfare since its establishment, by such leaders in social service as John V. L. Pruyn, Theodore W. Dwight, William Pryor Letchworth, Josephine Shaw Lowell, Stephen Smith, Oscar Craig and William Rhinelander Stewart. The road upward has been a difficult one; but the climb has not been undertaken in vain. We have not yet reached the summit; but we can hope for the future because we base the present upon the lessons of the past.

The shocking truth about how state governments and their private industry partners are profiting from the social programs meant to support disadvantaged Americans
Government aid doesn’t always go where it’s supposed to. Foster care agencies team up with companies to take disability and survivor benefits from abused and neglected children. States and their revenue consultants use illusory schemes to siphon Medicaid funds intended for children and the poor into general state coffers. Child support payments for foster children and families on public assistance are converted into government revenue. And the poverty industry keeps expanding, leaving us with nursing homes and juvenile detention centers that sedate residents to reduce costs and maximize profit, local governments buying nursing homes to take the facilities’ federal aid while the elderly languish with poor care, and counties hiring companies to mine the poor for additional funds in modern day debtor’s prisons. In The Poverty Industry, Daniel L. Hatcher shows us how state governments and their private industry partners are profiting from the social safety net, turning America’s most vulnerable populations into sources of revenue. The poverty industry is stealing billions in federal aid and other funds from impoverished families, abused and neglected children, and the disabled and elderly poor. As policy experts across the political spectrum debate how to best structure government assistance programs, a massive siphoning of the safety net is occurring behind the scenes. In the face of these abuses of power, Hatcher offers a road map for reforms to realign the practices of human service agencies with their intended purpose and to prevent the misuse of public taxpayer dollars. With more Americans than ever before seeking unemployment benefits, it is essential to remedy the nefarious practices that will impede them from receiving the full government support they are due. The Poverty Industry shows us the path to rectify this systemic inequality to ensure that government aid truly gets to those in need.
