means-tested government antipoverty programs  

Definición

  • Means-tested government antipoverty programs are particularly designed to decrease the poverty of people who are in genuine need by providing them with government assistance. Proponents of these programs claim means testing enables the government to select and help the most deserving people and to provide these people with cash, food, and services.
