[quote=Anonymous]The event died due to ridicule, particularly because their senior center is called a "Country Club" because they bought it from a decommissioned golf club. But there is value in the exercise itself. People who did not grow up poor or even lower middle class have no concept of the tradeoffs poor people are forced to make. Things that seem irrational to the rich often have rational explanations once you actually consider the situation. That is not to say that poor people always make good choices, but our ignorance to the reality causes problems as well.[/quote]
