Just another peasant sychophant thread.
Who said that the "Ultra Rich have it so hard"?

I'm just saying that poor people and progressives don't exactly turn down the billions in charity because they are disgusted with the evil rich people and would never accept their dirty, dirty money.

It's called hypocrisy.

Between the communist overtones and progressive thinkers I simply say this.
Poor people will always be poor they choose to be poor.
Rich people thru work and some thru trust funds stay rich.
the middle class try to become rich and work hard enough to not be POOR.

A free society will have less poor if the rich aren't busy finding new ways with the help of government to KEEP THE POOR dependant on government.
Then again we have many socialist, globalist rich elitest who think government is the solution to all economic problems even theirs.

Yea, even I don't agree with that statement the way it was intended to be taken. There are motivated poor people that realize they can change their situation if they want to. And it works, and they achieve plenty of success.
