Oh bullcrap. Wow, everything I wrote except those first two words wasn't posted. Awesome. Basically, anyone who wants to put forth the effort can go to school. Many people don't want to put forth that effort, and people like you feel the need to make excuses for them. It's not always easy, but if someon wants to put forth the effort they can find a way to do it. Most people either don't want to put forth the effort, or they decided sex was more important and had children before they were ready. Even in that case you can still make it work if you put forth the effort, it's just harder. I know plently of people who have screwed up their lives, then turned it around and went to college. Stop making excuses for the lazy.

Yea, that reminded me of something I watched on TV a few years ago. When Katrina hit, there were reporters in New Orleans on the outskirts of the flood, and they were watching people pull others out of the waters. One man came by, and he stopped him to ask him some questions. This man had been spending the last 15 hours finding people, and carrying them to safety. He was headed back in to find another person.

The reporter asked the man if he himself was there when the flood started, and he said he was sleeping on his mattress that a friend let him put on his friends front porch, and saw the water coming.

And what ran though my mind, was here is an ultra poor man, who has done nothing to better his life, but when he has to act, he has the energy to pull people out of a flood for 15 hours.

Where is that motivation on a regular day? I bet if he needed to work, he would. He just doesn’t need to work. There are millions who would rather live the lifestyle they have, and bitch about what they don’t have, then put forth the effort to have more.

I don’t feel the least bit sorry for them.

     Of course if Bush had sent in disastrer relief workers much quicker than he did because the disaster was occurring mainly to poor colored people, then there wouldn't have had to have been so many people having to be pulled from the flood waters.
