You show a fair amount of insight in your post.

Yes, poor people need a community.

So do children.

But in most of North America, we live in community-less military-barracks-style suburbia.
In most of North America, we drive past one another without talking or offering to help anyone.
In most of North America, people are lonely because there is no community anymore, and talking to your private family isn't the same at all.

In fact, families have been perverted by lack of community. Children remain immature and dependent on their parents forever, because parents *use* their own children as *friends* in the social void of single family homes on cul de sacs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't this be also[…]
