Simplistic solutions for simplistic people

As expected, graduation rates are higher in blue states, and they are in red

The US teen birth rate (births per 1,000 females aged 15 to 19 years) has been declining since 1991.

As of December 2022, there were 131.81 million full-time employees in the United States. This is an increase from December 2021, when there were 129.82 million full-time employees.

Based on data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, more than 400,000 Americans work two full-time jobs. In September 2022, 4.9% of all the more than 164 million US workers held two or more job positions, over 7.7 million

"Simplistic solutions for simplistic people"

If that's not an effective solution, please support that. I posted the data from the Brookings institution supporting that. You dismiss it as simplistic, with zero evidence?

Sorry, it's not a lame solution, just because you happen to say so. Show me what you base that conclusion on, or else you made it up.

It is simple. That doesn't mean it doesn't work. Turning on a light by flipping a switch is pretty simple. That doesn't mean it doesn't work.

Here's what also sounds simple...cure poverty by giving money to poor people. We've done that. It sounds simple. The data is also clear on that. It doesn't work.

"The US teen birth rate (births per 1,000 females aged 15 to 19 years) has been declining since 1991."

Doesn't mention fatherlessness. Especially among blacks.
