Thread Name: BS: Poverty in the USA
Subject: RE: BS: Poverty in the USA
Bobert: You still have not given the motivations for all the evil corporations and rich folks to keep poor people poor. You assume the worst about everybody.

You keep talking about the real this or that like only you can see the way things really are. That is thinking from the dark ages. Things are what they seem. Talk about being in denial, You take the prize.

Companies are not going to donate to the campaign of politicians who are against them. Whould you donate to a candidate that goes around badmouthing contractors and blaming them for keeping people poor?

Now show me a working model of the redistribution of wealth. It it Cuba? Is it North Korea? They don't have all those greedy rich people and corporations and all of the people get the same thing equally, they get shit.

Did the French Revolution of 1789 do all that much for the French? The Islamic revolution of Iran? The Mexican revolution? the 4 Russian Revolutions? The Chinese Revolution?

Show me where a revolution, other than the American revolution or war of independance, has brought human rights up to American standards.

You just need to get your head screwed on straight and figure out a way to keep those people from falling in the poverty trap to begin with.

I know a contractor in Oregon who has been going down to New Orleans with a whole bunch of other contractors in a church group and fixing up peoples houses for them. Your idea of helping folks is starting a revolution that will force the government to make up for everything that might happen to people. Like a nursemaid for everybody in the world and have someone else pay for it. That's real charitable. By the time you get through, there won't be anybody able to pay for anything including yourself.
