This post really sums it up nicely....especially the MYOB part. 
BTW if our poor can go around buying other people gifts and you all still feel pity for them, "oh it's so hard" I want to ask you a question. Have you ever been to another country and seen real proverty??? How about living in a cardboard box with 7 children. Been to Africa? Now that's poverty. Stop making excuses for the poor, who get a check then turn around and purchase a "real" coach bag instead of feeding their children. (true story)[/quote]

Yes as a matter of fact, I have been to the continent of Africa. It is a big continent with many different countries. There are usually only two economic classes of people in most of the countries. Those that have and those that do not. There is very little middle class. I have found that the poorest of the lot (people, not governments) have been the most charitable. Go figure. [/quote]

You are correct. I found the same. However they don't use the public's money to be irresponsible with and they appreciate the smallest gestures. They also don't have the," I'm poor so it's your job to take care of my every needs" mentality. They also value their children a whole lot more than those who get public assistance and find it more important to purchase a coach bag or buy alcohol, than  to make sure there is food in the fridge for the children. In Africa parents will go without meals but make sure their children always eat first if there is food.
