Well, where I grew up, there was actually train tracks. On one side were the "rich" kids (which, at the time, meant people with a house and married parents), and on the other the poor kids. That was a divorced mom scraping by on minimum wage or just little better. Sure, there was worse, but there was also a hell of a lot better. Your point about someone who gets sick - I agree, in that case it's not that person's fault. And those are the cases that I would agree deserve community help. But that's a fraction of 1% I bet. Every other case you mentioned, e.g., "live where your family has always lived", that's a choice. Being a school teacher is a choice. Being a policeman is a choice. People can move. And just about every town has a library to do unlimited research into anything you'd like. So poor is choice 99% of the time. That doesn't mean that everyone has an equal amount of challenges. Some have, what must seem like, an impossible mountain to climb. But the climb starts with wanting to climb. And that's a choice. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:227489 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
