The thing is that kind of approach shoots itself in the foot long term. People who are dirt poor with no hope for improvement are much more likely to resort to violence than people who have economic security.
Right, a workable economy cannot just sprout form the ground, it has to be built carefully. Whatever they hoped, it didn't happen. Most of the former Soviet countries are a mess :(
