I'm trying to get my foot out of my mouth to speak ... there. Ok, I agree that people can be busting tail and need help. I have no problem with that; as you pointed out I would have. I agree that we are lucky, no problem there either. BUT - Are you denying that some people are poor because it's their chosen way of life? They *could* go to school or move up somehow, but they don't *want* too. What is the percentage of those affected that fall into that category? I dunno. What would you say it is? My question is if we all have the choice to move up, why are there poor people? Why are there Mexicans flooding across the border mowing lawns, cleaning hotels, etc? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Discover CFTicket - The leading ColdFusion Help Desk and Trouble Ticket application http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=48 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:174857 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
