Im sorry guys, Im still a fuming about Peace's comment about Canada causing the poverty in the US. *** AWG tries to cool down *** Why not tell me the reasons for poverty then, Dianavan and Bobert. Is it because the parents aren't working hard enough ?? Oh, they are working hard you say ?? Oh, but you say there are no jobs (I thought the 'mighty' USA had a 4.6% unemployment rate historically one of the lowest ever) The economy is slow, you say ? Check the statistics, positive growth rate , low inflation, low unemployment, just check your stock markets lately, lots of wealth being created. Unfortunately, its only by the few. Why ? Because they WANT it. Lazy adults = poor adults = poor children, and the cycle continues. Unless people stop the cycle, and I hate to break it to you, but the government couldn't give a rats behind about the poor, except at election time. People have to get off their asses and help themselves!! NOW who's living in reality ??
