I dont think poverty is as bad as people may think, though I havent really experienced it myself so how should I know? But if those who are poor wish they had more, is it any different from those who want more and have it, and always want more?

Yes, Person-Man, there is a difference, you fucking asswipe moron. The wealthy want more shit they don't really need, while the poor want FOOD and SHELTER.
What an ass-twit.
Yes, because the rich don't need it. The poor do.
Don't trust me? Well, how about we throw you out on the street with only the clothes you're wearing and see if you keep your opinion.
Live off of stale crackers and old peanut butter or less for a few days while your landlord hassles you then give us a human opinion.
It's amazing in this fucked up tea-party America how common this "everyone suffers" shit comes from those who are comfortable and fed.
I guess some of this attitude come from cliches like "hard work never killed anyone" (demonstrubly bullshit) from people who never work hard or "money can't buy happiness" from people with money.
But still, can't you people see how having nothing yet still owing is a misreable existance? In no way similiar to your having to wait a year for that new car buzz or latest gizmo the other kids have?
Its when you need to decide which people in the house eat today, and how many days it will be before you can go buy some food then you can have an opinion on poverty.
"I wish my kids could have a piece of bread and some milk" is in my opinion a long way from "Hey I only have a 27" tv and one HBO channel, I want a 46" tv, 4 HBO and Netflix.
"I dont think poverty is as bad as people may think, though I havent really experienced it myself so how should I know?"
Exactly. So shut the fuck up.
Yeah, what's up with all these poor folk? Greedy sons-a-bitches, anyway, always wanting more, more, more. I tell ya. harrumph!
Confused?
