In The War on the Poor, Dr. Clarence B. Carson describes how the welfarist programs, sometimes described by their advocates as a War on Poverty, have been in practice a war on the poor. He demonstrates the disastrous effects on the poor -- on farmers and small businessmen, or urban dwellers and wage earners -- of the very programs intended to aid them. Originally published in 1969, The War on the Poor has been updated in 1991 with two new chapters and is newly indexed.
