Edwards On Responsibility

Speaking about Iraq on Larry King Live after the president's speech, John Edwards said:

If you think about everyday life, people are more likely to take responsibility when no one else is helping them or propping them up.

Hmm...does that mean that he thinks the best route out of poverty is through individuals taking responsibility for their own lives rather than depending on government largesse?
