CAVUTO: “We did a good job, no, we did a good job with poverty for our precious elderly. The problem instead of going for full employment with dignity of labor, went welfare programs. Welfare programs are qualitatively different than full employment. That was major battle we lost in ‘70s, to respond — Neil: What did we screw up? I didn’t understand you there. That we went to welfare or our goal was full employment?”
