Prolonged and or untreated mental and/or physical illness without family support are the only two real excuses for poverty. And even there we have to look at specific circumstances.
Unless you choose to live just under the poverty line...which several people I know have done. Due to government regulation they have no financial incentive to make more money unless they make a significant amount more therefore they simply remain just below the cut.
What others do and taxes are rubbish excuses in this discussion.
If you are free from physical and mental illness all you have to do is upkeep your health, don't have kids, don't buy things, don't take out loans, and don't do drugs/other costly vices and you can waltz into a solid career/middle class lifestyle.
“Waltz into a solid career/middle class lifestyle “. Nonsense. College without loans?
If kids who would otherwise go hungry are getting food, is that not a good thing?
The point is you lied when you claimed illegal aliens do not get government services like free federal food program benefits, etc. They do get them. And Medicaid pays for the delivery and the medical care for new mothers and their anchor babies. Just two examples.

How do you exactly know they get them?
What meausures do you use to exactly confirm they get these services en masse, besides hearsay.
We feed them to the point most of them are overweight. talk about loved to death.
True. Food stamp recipients, including children, are highly disproportionately obese. They have a higher obesity rate than those not on food stamps, even the income-eligible who do not apply for benefits and provide for themselves.
That is an absolute falsehood! They most certainly do get free breakfast, lunches, and in the school my son teaches at they get weekend backpacks with food!
Also, you must have never lived in Texas, because illegals get free everything there- and expect to from day one.
Not a falsehood at all, this is what I was responding to:

I already said that all kids can attend school regardless of citizenship and it only makes sense that the schools aren't going to send them off to another room while the 'citizens' eat lunch. I stand by what I said, and I don't think that in Texas undocumented people get "free everything"

Schools aren't allowed to ask for citizenship status. Many areas of the country, Chicago, for example, have a lot of illegal aliens. I posted the map of the CPS free summer meals program. Any child up to age 18 can walk in and eat for free. And as for illegal aliens getting Medicaid benefits? Just ask any hospital admin. They'll confirm it.
