That'll definitely help. But you need a certain amount of forced re-distribution to reduce relative poverty significantly below 30% because it's defined as 60% of median.

Either that or find a way to significantly reduce the number of children that people in the bottom 30% are sprogging.

So, I am saying Capitalism is the cause, not the solution. Capitalism concentrates wealth and you need a redistribution system if you want that to not result in child poverty. It's not rocket science.

And no, eugenics is not the solution.

Capitalism is flawed for sure, but nobody's come up with anything better yet.

Burning the system to the ground for another attempt at communism would be insane.
