AKA to some, but working poor is boring. Poor people is properly insulting.

How is it insulting to a multi-millionaire CEO. Nobody cares about the struggles of a multi-millionaire dollar CEO that isn't even in that class bracket anymore and just dodges taxes as much as they can through loophooles. **** that CEO, he made it. Yes, he may or may not have worked his ass off hard for it but so the **** what? he's at the top now being greedy as **** and spitting on everyone that helped him to get where he is. He's taking in a paycheck that is 35 times when his low level employee makes and he thinks that's okay. Your employees shouldn't be struggling so hard to the point where they have to sign up for government assistance just to get by. *coughs Walmart coughs*

Didn't know you were a rich guy sympathizer but it makes sense and falls in line with other ideologies that you believe in.
See this is the same kind of us v. them, demonizing, prejudiced attitude that I imagine Goofle was talking about. Poor people are probably about as likely to be dishonest dickbags whenever the opportunity for personal gain arises. They just don't have the opportunity for such outrageous amounts of personal gain as rich people.

Of course poor people can be greedy but majority of the time especially in those fluff pieces that you see. Poor people 8 times out of 10 will go out of their way to help someone out and give what little they have to see someone else succeed.

Are you a rich guy sympathizer as well? Poor rich guy and all that money that he has earned over the years and swimming in. "It's so hard that people think I didn't work for all the money that I have wah wah wah."

1. As opposed to rich people? How many rich people do you know well vs. the amount of poor people? It's easy to hate a group of people when you don't know them.

2. HA! People are self-concerned assbags in general, rich or poor. When it's relatively easy plenty of people will help somebody else out. It's in our DNA. But throw in some actual sacrifice and the number of helpful heroes plummets.

I know you are going to come back and try to discredit my source but I don't care enough. Read this article if you want or don't. I'm not googling anymore.

Why are you under the impression that I hate rich people? I don't like the ones that are scum sucking *******s who abuse the tax loops to gain more profit and just horde it instead of taking care of the little people that get them to where they are. The big greedy corps(Walmart, Target, Verizon, etc.)

So how many rich people vs. amount of poor people do you know? Don't think this question is relevant at all to what I'm discussing.

Same reason I'm under the impression that you hate cops. You talk about how you know they're not all *******s, and then you go on a rant about how they're all awful people who should be beaten to death in the street.

Don't know many rich people, which is why I don't really have much of an opinion of them besides the impressions I get from pop culture, which are inescapable but not useful.

And of course it's relevant. I can know academically that all people from the middle east aren't terrorists, but without having met a bunch of them in military school, and pansy gayboy, and whoever else, I wouldn't have any first hand experience to counteract all the negative press.

Actually, I completely believed you. Speaking from personal experience I am pretty sure it's true. I just had never read a statistic backing up what I though and was curious where you had gotten that from.

Yeah, it was anecdotal but then I googled out of your request and curiosity.

I told you have nothing against cops really, it's just the shitty ones that aren't trained properly and that cover up for ones that do shitty things.

first hand experience is all anecdotal though. I kind of get what you are saying but it just ends up varying and not being good information to rely on.

Yes but it's still important for person-to-person relations. If the only people you know are white, who do white things, then meeting a black person will probably be a weird experience. As opposed to a white person who's known black people all their life, and who knows what's up and not up.
