In general, poor people put in more hard work than the middle-class and upper-class. Many work 2-3 jobs. Not desk jobs, but hard-labour. The idea that poor people live on the suspense of handouts from others' and don't do anything for themselves is probably the most privileged, ignorant, and snobbish thing I've ever read. Well done.

I'm not generalizing all poor people. I've met some truly remarkable workers who didn't make much, which is unfortunate but reality. I'm talking about the people who take advantage of the system and Again, that wasn't my point. I just think everyone needs to put in the work to do the best for themselves that they can. Obviously socioeconomic factors play a big part, but what I respect is hard-work, dedication, and people who look for new horizons from what they're given. Those are who inspire me.
See, you generalizing my post is that BS. ATRL is not accepting of different viewpoints.
