The ignorant statements are getting really old now...

A. I come from one of those poor families everyone talks about, yet speaks out for "me" yet don't sit there and think of what the hell people like me think.

B. I'm poor but I worked my ass off to be able to go to college, with little to no cost to me.

C. My mom is a part of that percent that is out of work and can't get a job in her field, its part of free market, its what this country is built on the job markets pick up and slow down, YET with all of that I still have a relatively new Laptop and internet connection, it's amazing what a poor family can do with budgeting.

D. This is the only country where I can do all of the above, I would live no where else, people need to appreciate what they have, and instead of complaining or "worrying about the little guy" they need to actually do work if they want this country to improve.

Actually listen and thank to the others that make sense...

Really?  You don't think people are able to do those things in Canada, UK, Australia, France, etc?  Hell in France your tuition is free for example.  Canada (where I'm from) has student loans, bursaries, grants, etc.  Don't get me wrong I think America is a great country, I've been to Florida numerous times along with other states but other countries are great as well.

 And still have my standard of living, while having such low income? Yeah a lot of countries offer that but I wouldn't have the things I have, no I don't believe that America is the only one that can let a poor guy like me go to college, but it's the only one where I get as nice of things as I have, for cheap... I know the costs of things elseware I wouldn't be able to afford half of the things I have... and when I say ALL of the above I meant, standard of living, having the things I have, going to college, and still being able to feed myself at a resturant when I want.  I love this country, but you don't hear about all of those poor to rich success stories from other countries thats why people come here, even poverty here is higher standard of living then their country and then their kids have the full ability to work hard enough for their education.
