Your posts are one-trick ponies at a circus, Bosco. No one obsesses about them, love. You try so hard...and come up short each time. Its so sad. We worry about you suffocating with your cranium so firmly inserted up the ol' poop chute

No, you have this imaginary Conservative Land besieged by hordes as the focus for your intact of information. It distorts it badly.

That America is a wealthy country is inarguable. That others in other lands have it worse is true. That our poor are living large is bullshit.

quote:

•Forty-three percent of all poor households actually own their own homes. The average home owned by persons classified as poor by the Census Bureau is a three-bedroom house with one-and-a-half baths, a garage, and a porch or patio.
•Eighty percent of poor households have air conditioning. By contrast, in 1970, only 36 percent of the entire U.S. population enjoyed air conditioning.
•Only 6 percent of poor households are overcrowded. More than two-thirds have more than two rooms per person.
•The average poor American has more living space than the average individual living in Paris, London, Vienna, Athens, and other cities throughout Europe. (These comparisons are to the average citizens in foreign countries, not to those classified as poor.)
•Nearly three-quarters of poor households own a car; 31 percent own two or more cars.
•Ninety-seven percent of poor households have a color television; over half own two or more color televisions.
•Seventy-eight percent have a VCR or DVD player; 62 percent have cable or satellite TV reception.
•Eighty-nine percent own microwave ovens, more than half have a stereo, and more than a third have an automatic dishwasher.

As a group, America's poor are far from being chronically undernourished. The average consumption of protein, vitamins, and minerals is virtually the same for poor and middle-class children and, in most cases, is well above recommended norms...

Overall, the typical American defined as poor by the government has a car, air conditioning, a refrigerator, a stove, a clothes washer and dryer, and a microwave. He has two color televisions, cable or satellite TV reception, a VCR or DVD player, and a stereo. He is able to obtain medical care. His home is in good repair and is not overcrowded. By his own report, his family is not hungry and he had sufficient funds in the past year to meet his family's essential needs. While this individual's life is not opulent, it is equally far from the popular images of dire poverty conveyed by the press, liberal activists, and politicians...

The living conditions of persons defined as poor by the government bear little resemblance to notions of "poverty" promoted by politicians and political activists. If poverty is defined as lacking adequate nutritious food for one's family, a reasonably warm and dry apartment to live in, or a car with which to get to work when one is needed, then there are relatively few poor persons remaining in the United States. Real material hardship does occur, but it is limited in scope and severity.

So what's your point? Our poor is well-off compared to the poor in 3rd world countries? Are we supposed to feel good about that?. What about all of the homeless people?

Like Ive written, there are Trillion$ more wealth to be sucked from the poor in the US. Maybe you'll live long enough, I may not but there will be a time...just wait.

I mean yes, by all means forget the poor because after all. in the mindset of the right, they aren't...like you and me, so fuck 'em.

So what's your point? Our poor is well-off compared to the poor in 3rd world countries? Are we supposed to feel good about that?. What about all of the homeless people?

The usual idiots scream that we don't spend enough on welfare, but why spend more when our poor live really large comparatively. AND, most of our "poor" can get ahead if they choose to work at it

And leftists want to destroy the goose that lays the golden eggs (capitalism) in the name of "the poor" so that we can all be third world poor, but at least equal

Many homeless people are substance abusers and / or suffer mental health issues. And many choose to be homeless. You know, the sun at your back, the wind in your hair, no responsibilities... No one to answer to but you and your dog or whatever

No, I do not think that the tipping point has been reached, far too many still cling to the idea that they too might be able to somehow worm their way into the exploitative class, however, it is approaching with increasing rapidity. The wealth inequality crisis will be the trigger, it is the inevitable downfall of every exploitative system.
and as for why the system matters, well not all systems are equally amenable to an exploitative class. Capitalism requires it, it is based on the existence of an exploiting minority and an exploited majority. Socialism makes it more difficult for a single interrelated exploitative class to arise, rather it is prone to the danger of multiple exploitative groups, but they will share less of a class consciousness. Communism, makes it even more difficult, and the exploitative elements to which it is prone would be very diverse, and thus less inimical to the health of the whole body politic.

An odd statement, considering the absence of wildly successful socialist societies in the world.

Not in the slightest, seeing as I made no mention of societies. My statement6 only becomes odd when you add shit to it in your mind that I never put in the original. Try paying closer attention to what is actually said in the future.
