An Elk Grove Village letter to the editor: People in troubled neighborhoods are disadvantaged in two ways, directly and indirectly.
Directly, they are harmed by the uncivilized gangbanger drug culture which dominates their neighborhoods, with rival gangs shooting each other, and the collateral damage to civilized people who were innocent.
Today's society has tried to create programs to help benefit such disadvantaged people. Unfortunately, some of these programs fail to recognize the difference between civilized people and uncivilized people, and as a result, those who are uncivilized, who do not deserve the benefits of such programs, are taking advantage of benefits intended for civilized people.
This suggests that welfare should not be monetary, but instead should be given in goods and services only. Monetary welfare has not worked.
