``The most important thing is for the will of the American people to do something about (poverty).

Would that be the people in "poverty" with color televisions, cell phones, $200 tennis shoes, etc.?!

BTW, tort reform would be a good start to shut up ambulance chasers like him.

In America you can meet people who claim to be poor and who qualify statistically as poor who:

(1) Lease a late-model automobile loaded with options;

(2) Own several pairs of designer sneakers;

(3) Own various pieces of gold jewelry;

(4) Eat out at restaurants several times a week;

(5) Own several televisions including a big screen TV;

(6) Own multiple videogame systems;

(7) Regularly have their hair styled and extended and regularly have their nails groomed by professionals; and

(8) Regularly fly to places like Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and Trinidad several times a year.
