its extremely presumptuous of you to assume people in poverty don't work hard.... its also very narrow minded.... have you ever been a young black woman, poorly educated and niave who got knocked up early and left with that child on her own to raise? works hard at 3 jobs just to make enough money not to starve... no time for school, no one to help her? have you ever been a war vet coming home from a tour suffering from ptsd and unable to get the treatment he needs let alone a good paying job to live a normal life? have you ever been a young black or Hispanic man who got caught with a little weed in his pocket and was forced to serve a prison sentence most white young males would never serve for the same crime? now 20 years later he finds it hard to find a good paying job because he has a record and cant even think of paying for a better education because the system is still reaching deep in his pockets for court fines?
or what about a cancer patient who without Obama care couldn't get the treatment she needs and even though she has some family help taking care of her four young children they cant replace the empty place in their lives since their father was shot and killed senselessly by a young man in a mugging gone awry.... and he was only mugging the guy because of an addiction he wished he could get help for if anyone would care.....
tldr: theres a lot of people who try hard but cant get a break... you were lucky you are the exception, not the standard....millions of people out there try hard and get nothing.... real life isn't a story book most of us don't get a happy ending.
Its actually adorable how you instantly attack someone who has worked for his success against odds you have no effing idea exist with known political propaganda rhetoric.
Millions of people do try hard and get placated to the same life they tried to leave. Millions move up. Millions fall from grace.
I cant tell you how many times dfl'ers scream at me that im lucky or it's because im white while gop'ers respond with 'so?'
Muthafucka ive built my life because i wanted it better than what i had growing up. I've got a criminal record, ive been kicked out of two universities, changed jobs 4 times in tyne great recession and now up to my eyeballs in debt from buying a farm. And yet my net worth is stupid high for a 28year old, i hold leadership positions in ag co-ops you don't know exist and i lobby to congress ever 6 months about trade markets, immigration reform, food saftey and environmental issues.
And then i have classmates who grew up "rich" that complain they can't get an acting job in MSP, the now 9th best city for theatrical productions.
Spew your lines again, but know i vote apolitically, because im not shackled to whatever mindset you seem to be.
