I'm not poor. Although it is true that there are many poor people in the U.S., but they're richer than poor people in most other countries.

The poorest person in the United States is far richer than most, if not all, the entire Third World. We Americans tend to take that fact for granted when screaming "poor me!" to the government.
You're poor by choice in America because there are ALWAYS alternatives and opportunities to achieve success. All you have to do is get off the government dole and get off your lead backsides and show some initiative.
Some of the richest people in America became that way by being poor at first, and deciding to change it for themselves.

One of the many potential candidates for President in 08 said "There's a lot of people who were born on third base and think they hit a triple."
And it was a Republican.

Nope, I'm not poor. You aren't, either, if you have a computer. English lessons would help.

Yes, I am poor. I'm also old, fat and ugly and can't find a frickin job anywhere! I want to work, it's more peaceful than at home with my sisters kids.

Most poor people in the US are poor because they won't get off their dead @ss and improve their situation. Liberalism has taught them that SOMEONE ELSE owes them a living.
