I hate to say it, but many people are poor because they grew up in families where the parents just didn't provide them with the tools to succeed in education or work.
I was raised by a single mom who went to work every day and impressed on me the importance of getting a good education.
Most of these "personal responsibility" republicans probably also had parents who made sure they went to school every day, and if they were having trouble, stepped in to help their child.
