This is what happened when I tried to join some myspace group for people who care about Kentucky. It was started by some *name deleted* person, but I can't find the group again because her page is unintelligible. It is literally difficult to make out even a single word on the page because of the photographic noise in the background. The group said something about wanting to be a state senator or working for one or something. Here's the exchange:

ok. so your group is for people who care about kentucky and are democrats. that's cool. that way you all can agree with each other all day and you'll never be questioned or challenged and you'll never have to hone your arguing skills. i guess republicans are the only ones who should be questioned. sorry, didn't mean to "ruin" your blog group. how did you feel about the chinese president being questioned today?

This is what her most current blog says:

Nice again! I guess Democrats are better than Republicans because they make more money? And that's because "karma is a b$#@^." Okay. That makes a lot of sense.

On a serious note, I truly feel for "poor people." ( I don't know if the girl's talking about homeless people, or the middle class, lower middle class, or what - but it doesn't matter)
You have to remember something, though. Aside from people who steal money (like the gov't, for example) and people who inherit money, most "rich people" are rich because they are smart with their money. They take care of it. They don't waste it. They're good with it and they know how to earn it. You can't hold that against them, can you? AND many of them give a ton of money away to causes they believe in - be it, to church, to a mission to help "poor people," to 527's they like (george soros), etc. You can't fault them for that, can you? So what are people so angry about regarding "rich people?" It sounds to me like they're mad because THEY ARE NOT RICH. That is called jealousy. It is wrong and it only hurts the person with the jealousy. You have to be happy with what you have and take good care of it.

One other thing. A lot of poor people are poor because they don't know how to handle money. That's why most poor people who win the lottery or win some huge financial settlement lawsuit or something like that where all of a sudden they have a ton of money - most of them are broke again within five years. Look it up. Please. They're broke because they don't do smart things with their money. I know this doesn't apply to everyone but it's a good point to think about. Plus, nowhere in the constitution does it say that we have to help people. It is the right thing to do - to help people and teach them how to succeed, but not doing so is a legal choice.

Solution? I don't know exactly - but I do know that public schools could really help out an entire generation of people right now if they would maybe divert some time away from sex training classes and socialism 101 and teach people something about how to succeed IN THIS LIFE and IN THIS COUNTRY.
