I, FReeper rogue yam, have a plan that will give every American a shot at the middle class. I call it the "Don't Be a Punk Plan". I will now share my plan with the world. Here we go:

Don't do drugs or be a drunk.
Obey the law.
Don't threaten people.
Get every bit of education you can.
Work (this is really important).
Be frugal and save.
Pull your damn pants up and speak English so that educated people can understand you.

There it is, world. My "Don't Be a Punk Plan". Guaranteed to work. And the best part is you can get started right away, it requires no outside funding, and it doesn't matter who's elected.

That sounds similar to Walter Williams plan:

"Here's Williams' roadmap out of poverty: Complete high school; get a job, any kind of a job; get married before having children; and be a law-abiding citizen. Among both black and white Americans so described, the poverty rate is in the single digits." -- Walter Williams
