lol, I used to be very poor. one month I only had 20 bucks to eat off of, so I went to the local grocery store, and asked the general manager what the most efficient use of my money was. He took me in the back and sold me a day old expired case of frozen waffles (I am sure he pocketed the 20). It's crazy that I still like them after that month. I look back now, and realize it never dawned on me to ask for government assistance. I figured it was my fault I got into this mess, it was my job to get myself out of it.

Anyway, I figured out what it took not to be poor, and I did the things it took to get there.

The funny thing, is my success is not what gave me these political views, my political views gave me this success. If you are the kind of person who feels your stake in life is solely the responsibility of yourself, you tend to do better in life then if your one to expect others to improve your life for you. Just my opinion anyway.

And I am not rich by any means, I make about 80K a year.

i dont know about the US, but in the UK, the average wage is 22k a year, so 80k a year is almost 4x the average wage here, i mean, i would definetley call someone on 80k a year Rich.
