The "poor pool" is for the rich to dip into Mary when they have a thirst & after they (the poor) are used up then they can go off to the wars & dies. The poor pool is a rich & valuable resource. The grinding of them is what this nation was built on & what keeps it wheels greased & it's rich & powerful so alive & healthy & so few & the poor so many. Crime is benifical & so are drugs, gambling, a cheap labor force to draw from, cheap housing for cheap workers, low wages & no benifits, migrant workers. Look at what ails the poor the most & follow the money back to the source. We will not drain that pool just to put out the fire!
