It is impossible for you to dispute the claim that there would be more people living in poverty if we had not spent that money.
However, it is not impossible for you to show statistics of how many less people are living in poverty now.
Surely there's some statistical analysis to show that 29 trillion dollars of taxpayer money has led somewhere, right? There has to be some concrete data available.
If not, are you seriously suggesting that the only support for these programs to continue and get larger is that we have to imagine how many more people would be living in poverty without them???
There really was one born every minute.
