It is sad, but I bet there are a lot of poor people who simply don’t have the wherewithal to buy liters of soda and store them — less than a buck at the grocery store.
Instead, they spend $3 to have a pizza delivery guy bring it.
Most poor people are poor because they are bloomin’ (pardon the bloomberg pun) idiots and dependent sheep types.
It’s true! I have had the misfortune of dealing with some in the past and they were always buying name brand crap be it food or clothing and here I am making twice as much or more and I am wearing the cheap clothing and using the store brand detergents and sang you hiney off toilet paper and eating the store brand FMV food. While they would buy Kraft brand mac and cheese and extra soft charmin to wipe their tushes when they crapped out their mac....
I lived lean when i was starting out and that is what drove me to pursue a better job and career path, and as a result I still live lean in MANY areas! They are missing the drive that a natural state of poverty used to help drive into people. My parents and grandparents were poor and they used to go to the dump to get their clothing and furniture and used to have to go to bed ever so many meals hungry. Not anymore with welfare and EBT cards....
We still buy clothes at the thrift store. It is a way of life. It’s also “green living”, re-use of perfectly good things.
And Obama and the liberals will come after me and demonize me because I have money in the bank; which they don’t, because they don’t work as hard, but moreso because they spent all the money they had, and money they didn’t have. Because they thought that having expensive things was a measure of worth.
