I just re-read my comments from last month & 11 months ago.

Nothing has changed. The poor are still complaining and feel they have the right to riot. In rioting they destroy the property of the Rich and sub-rich thinking that they have the right to do this and that it will somehow bring the poor closer to being rich. Like spoiled mindless children they think if they scream and stomp their feet that daddy will give them what they want we have no real poor in America

In America the top 1% of the income earners (over $350,000) pay more taxes by themselves than do 95% of the taxpayers. WHILE at the same time the lower 95% of the income earners (less than $160,000) pay in total~ into the tax coffers less money than only 1% of the income earners

the 1% are called THE RICH

the rest of the people hate the rich YET at the same time the poor people live off the backs of the rich people and the poor people only complain and complain and complain

Poverty in AMERICA is just a line on a chart. The line changes as the politicians direct it. If you have income below this line you are POOR according to the bureaucrats. However if you drive through what is considered a POOR neighborhood or a ghetto you will see a myriad of FAT people milling about each with a cell phone, most with i-pods, and plenty of cars. There are no people dressed in raggedy cloths and no skin and bone people anywhere.

So where do they hide all these starving souls??

My family is from Central America.I've seen poor. Poor here means that you only have a PS2 and not a PS3. Perspective is off a tad.
