Thread: Can well off, wealthy and financially secure people possibly understand and know what lower class and poverty level...

Started 4 months ago by breezey
Can people who have never gone without their needs met, never had to live in poverty, etc.. possibly know what it's like and come up with the best solutions for people who are low or poverty level? Can financially set people honestly know what less fortunate people have to deal with and go through? Can these financially set people really know what is best for less fortunate people and actually ...

Ja'aj... I think you understand now what I meant by this question. I am not sure I like high up people deciding what should be or would be good for those who really need the help. Seems the poor get poor and the rich get richer. I see something seriously wrong with this. And those in need don't get asked the best ways to make that better or if asked... don't get what they know will make a ...

I understood what yo meant. The poor get poorer - when there are CROOKS! involved. This country is based on Capitalism - not theivery. This current crap - is an anomally. It WILL "get better" if "we" get off out butts and DO something! about it. I am not the least-bit interested in the "what can you do" /"poooor me" bull. I can do something - and I need help to accomplish it. I'm very ...

I understood what you meant. It is not a difficult concept. The poor get poorer - when there are CROOKS! involved. You may have noticed - the well-off got a whole lot! poorer recently. This country is based on Capitalism - not thievery. This current crap - is an anomaly. It WILL "get better" if "we" get off out butts and DO something! about it.

I see what you're saying... It would depend on the "people" who are trying to help. They can and they do - They ASK - and receive input from the people they are trying to help. The thousands and millions of people helped by the programs put in place by just those people speak for themselves. Unlike Marie Antionette - the wealthy are not another species. :) They speak the ...

Many financially-secure people - weren't- always. Many came from grinding poverty - with the drive and intelligence to help themselves and the people like them. The enourmously wealthy - in this country alone - are responsible for billions of dollars worth of programs that help the people at the other end of the spectrum.

I hadn't even thought about that side of it. Never once thought of scholarships or anything like that. lol Thank you for pointing those out, Ja'aj. I think this is one you and I will have to discuss more. I'm going to pick your brain, so get it ready.

Bree, REALLY? :) I am "baaack"! here because I figured I had completely! missed your point. I was looking for your "No... what I'm asking about is..." :) ... aaaah .... "brain"...? MY brain? ooooh..... I dunno.... ooookaaay...... I feel you should know that I pretty-much exhausted my tiny store of info in the paragraphs above here... yikes!.... But! :) Let's not ...

One thing - among many - that I truly believe about my country : None try harder - (and none come closer) to bridge the gap that divides the 'tools available' to the moneyed of this country and the " tools not available" citizens. };> Very few actually imagine the wealthy should give away their wealth. But - they do. :) WARREN BUFFET just gave his CONSIDERABLE FORTUNE- (...
