A nation’s most valuable asset is its people. Like it or not, the 
“underclass” seems to be where most of the future population is coming 
from, in many countries, as the birth rate among the affluent elite drops 
below the replacement level. So if you don’t invest in that “underclass”, 
your nation will end up with no future. QED.
