Then instead of spending all this money on education and job training, offering free college to the poor, why not just introduce them to Obama and Congress and some important people?
if you took all the money from everyone in the US, and then gave every single person a million bucks, within 5 years the same people would be poor, and the same people would be rich.
Really is that why so many rich people end up commiting suicide when they lose it all?
So depending on which part of their rich/poor cycle you catch them in or when they die..hopefully while they are still rich defines them as the rich chosers or the poor choosers.
What a lot of B/S we have in this you choose to be poor theory.
Location: I currently exist only in a state of mind. one too complex for geographic location.

their are fewer rich people than poor people because you need poor people to make the rich people. duh
rich get rich off of others. duh
i don't agree with outright capitalism. it's unfortunate communism has not worked yet but maybe in the future, it can in some very enlightened form.
Communism will never work. Duh
I disagree with any form that restricts personal choice and that even includes capitalism. The people must not be forced to all consume the same things. There are different people who thrive in different environments and we need to have a system like that.

i said enlightened communism, genius. think outside the box. you can't live with unlimited personal choice as it can be detrimental to yourself not just others just as i don't advocate having no personal choices. the ideas of government were not formed in a day just as we can form new and better governments. duh.
it's called improvement. 'conservative' and 'same' applies to you. LOL

Some don't choose to be poor. I have a bachelor of science in flight operations, plus an additional 3 years of flight training and every civilian flight certificate one can attain. I'm am a gainfully employed airline pilot. Yet, I'm on public assistance and can barely keep my head above water. They have sliced and diced our wages and benefits in this industry rather than raise ticket prices to where they should be. Therefore, my family pays the price. Plus, they are going to furlough several hundred of us later this fall. I didn't plan this, it was imposed upon me. I wasn't supposed to happen this way, it just happened. Some people try to make the responsible and smart decisions and choices, and still get screwed. Your view is too simplistic and black and white. Life, on the other hand, has a lot of gray areas.
Umm. Perhaps seek another line of work?
