Saving Our Children From Poverty compares the American aversion to national assistance programs with the French commitment to child well-being. Americans' lack of faith in the federal government, a growing resistance to taxation, and a belief that financial support encourages irresponsibility have weakened support for U.S. welfare programs.

Saving Our Children From Poverty illustrates what a nation no wealthier than ours can realistically accomplish and concludes with a viable blueprint for successfully applying aspects of France's system to the United States. Its insights may help us to realize the importance of helping America's most undeserving poor.
