Well done ;-)

Wish I could live on $2.00 a day. I'd be able to save a lot of money that way.

I do not believe this.

They may not EARN more than $2 a day. I would bet they are getting plenty of redistributed earnings of the producers.

LOL! Good stuff. Who’d ever thought letting kids run the government would be so much fun! We’re not just saving the planet, we’re saving the whole flippin’ universe!

0bama trying to drive that point home...

Almost got me that time. It’s getting hard and harder to differentiate between satire and reality.

It can be done if you forsake trends, fads and hype.

Fish, hunt and grow your own.

Use wood for fuel, invest wisely in self sufficient power sources.

And then give the big royal middle finger to society.

Living on less than $2 a day is an achievement not a sign of poverty. But it can apply to both.

How much you wanna bet that a significant number are Obama supporters... and Idiots?

But I repeat myself.

Thank you for bringing this very important issue to light.

We should not be able to sleep at night knowing that our fellow citizens are quietly living lives of quiet desperation as Thoreau so eloquently stated.

Just the other day I heard a news story about riots that broke out across the country when this squalorly segment of our population was made aware there was a new supply of footwear for them to replace the makeshift "shoes" they'd be wearing which consisted mostly of newspaper and animal hides wrapped around their bloody and blistered stumps held on only by whatever was left of their shirts or pants that served as string.

Or was I reading a book about the conditions George Washington's soldiers endured fighting The Revolutionary War?

Whatever. Same difference.

And then, to add insult to injury, after the riots broke out, the stores decided not to sell the shoes after all! Well, at least not at midnight as first advertised.

And then, to add neener-neeners to insult to injury, they jacked the prices of the shoes up to 200 dollars when just this past Christmas they could've bought similar shoes for only 180 dollars.

This country truly has a lot to be ashamed of. I don't know why people from the rest of the world keep flocking here.

Absolutely one of your best, John! Keep up the great work of displaying the deep thoughts of these people in “high office!”

You can bet the kids are getting at least two tax-payer funded meals a day at school. (Some schools provide an evening meal as well.) And the mothers with babies are buying food with their tax-payer funded WIC cards. And they are living in tax-payer subsidized housing. And they are making money under the table and not reporting it. How else could they afford Obama’s $4/gal. gas, cigarettes, and beer?

And I’ve been caught by the satire trap this AM! Thanks for getting my blood pressure up. At my age, that’s a plus.
