Gotta be honest, I agree. I'm all for helping the poor, just not the poor who don't want to help themselves. I have no problem with reduced utilities, reduced school lunches, food cards or whatever for people who put in a solid week's work but still live pay check to pay check because they don't earn enough. The lazy ass abusers need to be cut off.HSH, don't start that shit now. Since when has anyone censored theirselves?
As my old dad said, "Poor folks have poor folks ways."
1. Education
2. Parenting.
"welfare" has rescued more people from desperate povery than conservatives admit. You never hear about "welfare" successes - only the abuses. A ton of very successful people received government help in their younger years, and we're all better off for it.
This has been proven false multiple times.Drugs, drugs, and drugs.
The majority of the "poor" here (only country in the world where the "poor" have IPhones and are obese) are "poor" due to drug usage.

So purely anecdotal?That info is straight bullshit.
I work on the front lines with "poor" people everyday. Unless they tested those urine samples for specific gravity, then likely those people poured water in the cup for the piss test. Most of the "poor" have issues with alcohol, cocaine or narcotics. At the program I work at where we help these folk get back on their feet by "rescuing" them from the streets or shelter and putting them up in a very nice supportive housing facility, 100% of them who commit to the program get back on their feet once they put the drugs behind. The ones who don't invariably get kicked out of the place for repeatedly breaking the rules and continuing their drug usage.
I work with government types daily. Most are completely clueless morons who are nothing more than enablers to the behaviors that keep the "poor" poor.
poor people doing coke now I know you are lying. If you had said ice or crack or meth maybe I would have bought what you are selling. Only the rich do coke and high end weed on a daily basis. This is fact. The poors are smoking bath tub meth and dirty mexican ganga.
What keeps the poor down is their parents for the most part. You only know what you are taught and high schools for the most part aren't teaching financial classes so unless your parents teach you about how to handle the money properly you will repeat the pattern.
Ah hell... read this thread and told myself not to post... I have bad self control.. I am going to get SLAMMED for saying this but....
There is an issue being discussed a lot in America about the creation of two large class populaces, wealthy and poor, and a marginalized shrinking middle-class. This in the inevitable result of a free market capitalist society. The wealthy congregate with other wealthy people, they are going to get better at keeping and building wealth, they teach their kids habits of the wealthy, and pass their wealth on to other wealthy people (family, businesses, etc). The poor congregate with other poor, they do not have knowledge to pass to their kids about how to grow wealth, they have and teach habits of poor people, they become reliant on programs that, under the guise of "assistance," create reliance rather than independence, and they have no perspective on how to change their situation. The middle class grows smaller by either giving to the wealthy and giving to the poor to become poor themselves or hoarding their wealth to become wealthy. A capitalist society will always end up with all wealth and resources dedicated to the two ends of the spectrum and never spread evenly over the whole. That is just fact. You have to decide on an individual basis what you want to be and what you want to teach your children.
Let the blows begin....
You are absolutely correct. A lot of conservatives don't want to hear this but without taxes and regulations and other means to do some redistribution of wealth all of the capital will end up in the hands of the rich. It takes money to make money is true. To me it's just a matter of determining at what level you set the government intervention.

I'm not lying, I meant crack cocaine.
Let's just ignore why people are doing drugs while we are up on our boxes.
So, they aren't poor due to drugs. They are poor because their parents were poor. Got it.It's cultural more than anything else.
Some cultures place an emphasis on education. They immgrate here and are poor but work their asses off and stress education to their kids. They tend to be successful. Other cultures place an emphasis on having the latest Air Jordans and expensive rims on their cars. Being a good father to your offspring is not expected in this subculture and we are surprised when the offspring join gangs at 14 and start shooting innocent people.
It's not rocket science.
