umm, i see. another gfy poster with the post count instead of iq. good for you. keep posting.

Go read your first post I responded to again. It doesn't make sense. It's not English.

nice nick. Haters is the answer to your question. Its called jealousy.

Is this Wheel of Fortune? Can I buy a comma? Am I supposed to fill in the missing words? Is NO the word that came out of your last date's mouth or do you mean New Orleans (N.O.)?

sorry no commas and yes NO=New Orleans

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

until you're ready to pay $15/lb for oranges, you can stfu. i worked fast food when i was young but i was in school. i worked my way threw college working at an a&w moping up bathrooms and cleaning tables. most of the people i worked with were in their 30's making min wage. they had no insurance, atleast 2 kids, and spent most of their money of their pimped out blazer and budweiser. these same people would bitch about thier pay, about the owners being cheap asses, and about how hard it was to find a job. i quit and found a better paying job and wondered why they couldnt do the same. then i realized the sad truth. these people are lazy fucks who do nothing but exploit the system milking it for every penny the whole time bitching about how its not enough. people are idiots, and i could care less if they're poor.

lol your signature quote is coming from a post of mine

I dispute that - you can't do better if you don't know better - if you dont' have the basic skills & education to leverage off, it's difficult to get out of trouble

so true...

50 rich and poor retards.

:thumbsup
That's exactly what I'm talking about. People refusing to lie down and using their drive to get out of the shit rather than waiting for Uncle Sam to come along and handing them a $1M check for being so special.

Poor people waste education funds and medical resources, make our street unsafe, never pay taxes and then have the hide to DEMAND help.

Here is my handout :321GFY

Then they shouldn't have tried when they took control of the children away from the parents.. then took prayer out of schools..

poor people have wayyyy too many kids

because the rich people harvest the labor of the poor using knowledge... same thing they did with slaves, if the slaves started getting "smart" then the slave owners lost their power.

Would you work for minimum wage? exactly.... you are most likely smart enough to know that money is just energy and rich people just position themselves at the top with poor people at the bottom bearing the burden.. kinda like a pyramid.

or atleast common sense....

They would rather buy Nike shoes for 200$ than books

lol. troll of the day!

Maybe the poor should just pray.....that will help.... right?

I agree poor people get fucked over alot, but being in the military for 10 years has taught me one important thing if nothing else.
"Take responsibility for your own damn self!"
If your getting fucked over, do something about it! Bitching and whining without taking action will get you nowhere. :2 cents:

who else are they ganna blame ?

you are using the same stupid argument that holds no water that every other apologist for the poor uses - you try to argue that its a zero sum system. the idea that one person cannot have without taking from someone else. its wrong. if you acknowledge that an economy can grow... then you have to understand that economic growth is the result of the wealth that is created... not confiscated from others.

It's all nice. we get it. you are a caring and compassionate person that cares. wonderful. the problem with your view is that anyone that doesn't agree is automatically the greedy prick because your view leaves no middle ground. you keep saying all this dumb shit... "the ever growing division between the rich and the poor" blah blah blah - the same bullshit rhetoric that has been said since the dawn of time. the bottom line is that the distribution of wealth in any economy is a fairly static number... 20% of people tend to control 80% of the wealth.

and you know what? If we gathered all money up in the United States and dropped it from airplanes into ghettos - in 100 years the distribution of wealth would again be the same. why? because while most people will be buying gold chains, stereo systems and 100 pairs of tennis shoes... and some people will be intelligent enough, have the foresight and work ethic to recognize the opportunity and be the ones to start manufacturing, marketing and selling those things to those idiots. thats how it all works. there is nothing in the US stopping anyone from getting off their lazy, ignorant, inbred ass and making money. nothing. zero.

no rich person ever tried to stop me from making money.

no one is stopping you.

no one is stopping anyone.

believe it or not, poor people become wealthy all the time. sorry to burst your bubble again with that little fact.

Buying healthy food such as vegtables and lean meat is probably more cheaper than McDonalds, it's not expensive. Only thing is that it's an acquired taste and some lazy people prefer McDees because it's faster and more convenient.

Plus you don't need a gym membership to work out, hell I HATE working out in public in front of people. You can easily work out in your own home, or if you don't mind working out in front of people just go to the park and jog... Lazy people always make excuses!

no need to create or spread hate/racism since african americans create it for themselves.

Also poor people from what I have seen do not know how to manage money. They may only get paid hourly and would spend their money on stupid useless shit they don't need at ALL. From what I've seen lots of poor people have bad financial skills. If you gave them a million dollars they wouldn't know how to save it or invest it. They think the whole point of having money is to spend it; they have no class whatsoever.

Not all poor people are like that tho. Some know how to really stretch a dollar and manage their money wisely.

It depends more on class tho. Not all poor people are low class. Some can actually be well educated and have a degree but not make a lot beause of their profession or because they are in grad school. Those people tend to be more "classier" and know how to manage money and carry themselves very well.

And then you have the obnoxious poor people who like to spend all their money on flashy jewels and ghetto designer clothes...

damn idiots need to go to school, get a job, stop being so lazy, and stop popping out kids

You obviously didn't read the quote that I was replying to..

You need to add the USA to that list judging from the events of the past week

The weak ones are there to justify the strong :2 cents:

Didn't Marx say that???

it's sad but true

People are poor for a variety of reasons. Not all poor people are lazy, crime prone or engage in the activities you described. Oftentimes, they carry the effects of bad decisions of people that came before them. My mother's family was dirt poor but through hard work, planning, and sheer personal will she and her siblings made out okay. The key thing about poverty is that even if a person is MATERIALLY poor, he or she should not allow themselves to become MENTALLY (as in attitude and outlook) poor as well. My mom and her family may have had to ration themselves 1 cup of rice a day for food but they never accepted their poverty and always strove hard to better themselves through education, work opportunities and starting small businesses. This is the kind of mentality that got them from a slum in Manila in the late 60's-early 70's to middle-class homes in California.

Because from their perspective, rich people made their money off the working backs of the poor.

And one more thing... not all poor people blame rich people for their plight. That's an EXCUSE mentality that will just make a person poorer. My mom never blamed her poverty on rich people. She always said... if you want to become rich, you CAN be rich. Just work hard, think hard, and do the best you can. Never make excuses for your own failure and always BELIEVE IN YOURSELF.

No government program or amount of government aid can produce that mentality. It has to come from the person.

And he probally pays them $5.15 and hour and yet can't figure out why they can't pay their bills. But it's not HIS fault. :winkwink:

hahahaha morons...both sides hahahah

Poor people generally spend money on Scratch off lottery tickets, beer, cigarretes, and corn for their kids. And usually in that order.

I don't know ... the shitty attitude of most people seems to be the problem . Some ghetto people can be really succesfull when they want too ... they just gotta try and have a "can-do" attittude

people are fucking lazy, its as simple as that.

most mexicans i know tend to bust their ass in everything they do. in fact, they tend to guage their worth as human beings by how much they work.. regardless of how much they make. at the end of the day, they are just living by the values and ideals they were raised with. just like any inner city kid, or inbred hillbilly from kentucky will.

:2 cents:

that's the tradition...they have to blame someone.!
