"GOP presidential candidate Ben Carson argued on Sunday that lawmakers did not understand what it is like to live in poverty.
“I’ve experienced every economic level,” Carson told host Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.”
“Poor people have pride too,” he argued of welfare programs. “They don’t just want to be taken care of.”
Carson cited his impoverished upbringing in Detroit as evidence of the experiences needed to best help the destitute.
Most politicians, he argued, are clueless when they talked about wealth inequality.
“I’m not sure in some cases they actually understand real life,” Carson said.
“There’s real-life experiences and then there’s politics,” the retired neurosurgeon added.
Carson charged that dependency on the government fundamentally hurts the poor."
