...Why is a 20 year old trying to correct a 30-something about work ethic?

Has the world got that bad? Really?

And FYI, Noddy, most of the poor people I know (and I know a lot of them) are that way because they are indeed lazy or stupid. No one wants to be poor - you are right about that - but not every one wants to take the steps needed to get out of it. I have friends that are in poverty, and could easily get out of it, but demand to spend $20-$30 on take-out dinners 2, 3 and even 4 times a week. I know others that drink and smoke, then complain about not having money. I could go on and on about the poor people I know, but in 80-90% of situations, they are self-inflicted.


yes, because clearly being younger always means my opinion is wrong...*facepalm*

maybe its just you being overly judgemental, its not just that you wont see them ALL the time, so cant judge like that, but you can also add to that, that many of the things you say they do, OUR CAPITALIST SOCIETY tells them to do...


opinion will only get you so far into the facts of society, that's just a friendly advice, take it or leave it, I'll stay proud of myself til the end.
