Governments at the local, state and federal levels run a vast number of anti-poverty programs, but poverty rates remain high. The two political parties rarely consider solutions that do not involve spending more public money.

Bandoch works extensively within the Illinois Policy Institute’s Center for Poverty Solutions, which researches poverty trends. Through a meticulous comparison of poverty studies, Bandoch found surprising agreement between left- and right-leaning think tanks on seven issues that could reduce the poverty rate in the United States. He discusses these findings in detail on the Overton Window podcast.
