The key thing on the chart is in the middle right. The dems lowered child poverty by a huge amount but the failure their program was built-in because payments were stopping in 2021. And then the dems entirely ignored the issue until around now when it's time to vote.

in a multiparty "democracy," (bourgeois class dictatorship) political parties usually refuse to fix problems because that would erode their platform that they run on forcing them to invest their resources (capital) into coming up with a new platform that might not be as appealing, which is high risk and strategically untenable, so instead they keep implementing half measures and letting their opponents occasionally roll back reforms so they can keep voters in thrall to them indefinitely by holding their civil rights and safety hostage.
