News Flash:
Indeed it often happens to poor people...
of EVERY color.

I agree that there's probably a correlation, but the causation goes the other way. The being poor is a product of poor decision making in the first place. You can't save people from themselves.[/quote]

NP. You’re an idiot. And where did the poor decision making for AAs generate? When reading was illegal for my great-great grandmother? Was the poor decision making in the  gerrymandered districts? The fair housing that was occurring in cost and right to ownership of property? The public investment in education and medical systems for people of color?  And that’s just in the US — not even going into the details of the immigrants here who strive to make it.

Everyone didn’t get a fair start in this life, all from the same place on the track when the mark was set to go. People aren’t all poor because of their decisions. Do you know how hard it is to make the jump from the poverty line to lower class? Lower to middle? The bands are HUGE. Don’t be an ass.[/quote]
